Boysenberry
The boysenberry is a hybrid fruit that results from crossing the raspberry, blackberry, and loganberry. It is known for its deep maroon color and sweet-tart flavor, making it popular in jams, jellies, and desserts. Boysenberries are rich in vitamins, antioxidants, and dietary fiber, contributing to their health benefits.
This berry was developed in the early 20th century by Walter Knott, who is also famous for founding Knott's Berry Farm in California. Boysenberries thrive in temperate climates and are typically harvested in late spring to early summer. They are often enjoyed fresh or used in various culinary applications.
