Plants! by insanejoker
Here's my tumblr post of some of my plants and the ones growing naturally at my b/f's parent's farm!

I'm wicked sore from helping them clear out the old barn (who wants to try moving hay / straw that's been trampled on for a few years?), picking up glass shards in the barn (from the old windows, windows that were just sitting in there and old bottles) and cutting branches from a dead tree they had to chop down. I also have to work soon XD
But enjoy the few pictures I took :D I might stream tonight, if not tomorrow. :)

Also on the topic of raspberries, if you have never had golden raspberries, find some. They are in my opinion the best tasking type of raspberry. Taste like honey and raspberry together. They are my favorite fruit I have ever eaten.
-
They can get kinda bitter if they get old, if I remember right. Best to find some on a vine, very fresh. They turn pinkish the older they get.

Never heard of golden ones before o.o I have to keep an eye out for those. Do raspberries go black? The red ones are still babies / not ripe at all yet. Regardless, whatever they are, they taste delicious.Yea, the possibility of seeing a wormy fruit that I want to eat kinda freaks me out a bit, but if I eat it accidentally...oh well. XD
-
Yea some types are black. They look pretty similar to blackberries, but there are some subtle differences. Oh, and the blackberries are usually larger too. Seems like the red raspberries I've seen get pretty big compared to the little black raspberries. The wild black raspberries can be pretty small. The wild blackberries I saw on the fence on the farm were pretty big.
-
Well these are definitely wild. Thanks for sharing that :) I didn't know there could be black raspberries. Now I know :D

I think that is a wild raspberry rather than a wild blackberry. Google both. The blackberries tend to have a more protruded shape and when I'd find them they were more often wormy, and were tougher, and sour (but there were way fewer of them I have found/eaten). The wild raspberries taste /amazing/, and are smaller than cultivated ones I've had.
