View of my berry box. On the right are newly-planted canes of Prime-Ark Freedom blackberry, red raspberry, black raspberry, tayberry, and boysenberry. On left, in the raised bed, are strawberries (Ozark Beauty, Merlan, Mignonette), and at the far end, Sunshine Blue blueberries. I call it Fruit Knox because the wire keeps the birds and squirrels out. #berries #rubus #blackberries #raspberries #boysenberries #tayberries #strawberries #garden #gardening #fruit
