Loganberry
Loganberry, a trailing plant of the rose family, closely related to the blackberry. It was first discovered in the garden of J. H. Logan, of Santa Cruz, California, in 1881. The loganberry produces large purplish-red, tart berries. The berries are marketed fresh, frozen, and canned, and are used to make jam, preserves, and juice.
The loganberry grows best in cool, moist climates. It is propagated by layeringinserting the tip of a stem, or cane, into the soil, where the cane then sends down roots and forms a new plant. The plants are trained on wires parallel to the ground.
The loganberry is a hybrid of several species of the genus Rubus of the family Rosaceae.
The loganberry produces large purple-red, tart berries, and is cousin to the blackberry.
