Mur californian cu fructe mari - Rubus 'Thornless Boysenberry' (Rubus ursinus × R. idaeus)

Rubus 'Thornless Boysenberry' is a special hybrid obtained by crossing blackberry and raspberry, known for its lack of thorns and its exceptionally large and fragrant fruits. This cultivar emerged as a result of plant breeding efforts aimed at eliminating the inconvenient thorns of traditional boysenberry varieties.

The fruits of 'Thornless Boysenberry' are recognized for their distinctive taste, which is a combination of raspberry and blackberry flavors. The fruits are large, dark-colored, almost black, and have an elongated shape. They are very sweet, juicy, and fragrant, making them ideal for fresh consumption as well as for making jams, jellies, or cakes.

One of the main advantages of this cultivar is the absence of thorns (which are present only as fine hairs that do not prick), making harvesting much easier and more pleasant. This is an important aspect, especially for home gardeners or those who want to involve children in gardening activities.

It withstands temperatures down to -25 °C. For abundant fruit production, it should be planted in a sunny area, without neglecting irrigation.

Very resistant plant to diseases and pests.
Height including pot: approx. 30 cm (varies depending on the season)
Pot diameter: 11-14 cm or 2 liters

Garden or terrace plants are grown in unprotected spaces or with minimal protection (shade nets or hail nets). For this reason, naturally, they cannot have perfect foliage – leaves may show marks, defects, or other damage.

During the cold season, the plants enter a period of dormancy.
