Rubus fruticosus x idaeus 'Tayberry', named after the River Tay in Scotland, is a cross between a blackberry and a red raspberry. It is valued for its large size, prolific production, and distinctive flavour and aroma which is a satisfying and delicious mix of acid-sweet. Berries mature to dark purple when fully ripe in late July through August. Canes can reach between 5 to 8 feet long. Expect crops on 2nd year wood. Excellent for fresh eating, cooking, baking, freezing, and canning. A wall or trellis support is required. Remove fruited canes after fruiting to encourage new canes. Attracts bees and wildlife. Possibly hardy to zone 3.
