Looking for a tasty and hardy shrub native to the west coast of North America? Look no further than Rubus spectabilis, also known as Salmonberry. The fruit of this deciduous shrub is juicy and boasts a very good flavor. Growing up to 1.8 meters (6 feet) tall, Salmonberry is hardy to zone 5 and not frost tender. It flowers in April and seeds ripen from June to July. Hermaphrodite flowers attract pollinating insects. This versatile plant can grow in a range of soils, from light sandy to heavy clay, and can survive in very acidic soils. Salmonberry prefers moist soil and can grow in semi-shade or no shade.
