Enjoy the best of two berry favorites with Loganberry, a vigorous blackberry and red raspberry hybrid producing large, juicy fruit with a distinctive sweet-tart flavor. The elongated berries ripen in July and develop their best flavor when allowed to fully darken to a beautiful deep wine-red before picking. Easy to grow and productive for years, this trailing berry makes a rewarding addition to the home garden.

    Loganberry Roots FAQs

    Why Isn’t My Loganberry Producing Fruit?

    One of the most common causes is incorrect pruning. Loganberries generally fruit on second-year canes, so cutting all canes to the ground each winter can prevent fruiting. Young plants may also need time to establish. Other causes include insufficient sunlight, drought, winter damage, excessive nitrogen, or poor pollination.

    What are some common problems with Loganberry?

    Loganberries may be affected by cane diseases, fruit rot, aphids, mites, Japanese beetles, cane borers, spotted-wing drosophila, and birds. Proper spacing, trellising, annual pruning, good airflow, regular harvesting, and well-drained soil help prevent problems.

    How do you harvest Loganberries?

    Loganberries generally ripen in summer, often around July. Harvest when berries turn deep wine-red to reddish purple and release easily from the plant. Pick every few days, handle gently, and enjoy fresh or use for preserves, baking, sauces, juice, or freezing.

    What exactly is a Loganberry?

    A Loganberry is a hybrid of a blackberry and a raspberry, producing large, tart-sweet, deep red to purple berries.
