Description

### Dewberry: * **Appearance:** The fruit is an aggregate of drupelets, similar in look to a blackberry or raspberry, and typically ripens to a deep purple or black colour. They are often described as being covered with a thin "dew" or waxy coating, giving them a pale blue appearance in some species. * **Plant Habit:** Unlike the upright canes of many blackberries, dewberry plants are characterised by their **low-growing, trailing, or vine-like stems** that creep along the ground and can take root at the tips. The stems are usually covered with fine prickles. * **Flavour & Use:** Dewberry fruits are edible and generally have a **sweet and slightly tart flavour, often described as being less seedy than blackberries. They are excellent for eating raw or for making jams, jellies, pies, and preserves. * **Season:** Dewberries are often the earliest of the *Rubus* species to ripen in the spring or early summer, depending on the region. They are found throughout North America and northern Europe.
