Description

The listing, WHITE blackberry seed wild harvested rare has ended.

While foraging this past year my friend and I came upon a small area of white blackberries. We had never seen anything like them before and were amazed to find these vines in our picking territory. After some research, we discovered they are in fact white blackberries and very rare. The seed I am auctioning came from the few berries we gleamed that day and our supply is very limited. We ate half our findings that day, amazed that they were indeed blackberries, and the taste was delightful. We have identified several vines of these and plan to try to transplant one or two next year but we are not gardeners, just harvesters, so not sure how our luck would run with seed. I did meet an oldtimer who told me of a couple vines he had as a child and that his mother made jelly with them, and it was a clear jelly yet tasted like rich blackberry. We didn't pick all the berries this year, hoping to save enough to make a batch of jelly, but it was a long hike, we are getting old and didn't manage to get back in time before the critters found them.
This auction is for ten of these seed. I will not be listing many, but maybe next year I hope to have more if I'm still able to hiike.

Well, i may as well bid on them, since you make them sound so good. Besides right now, i eat very little meat, and lots of fruits and veggies.

well, i always abhored punching a time clock and preferred my four legged friends over many of the two legged ones I've met. I can't imagine what it would be like to have neighbors or not be able to skinny dip in the creek out back, lol I have lived in the city, but was much younger and trying to get rich, then I realized the real wealth was something you can't buy.

bunnylove, I am unable to fan at this time, Listia claims I've reached my limit. As soon as they ease up a little, or I get more fans I'll return the favor. You say you forage also? I love Mother Nature and all the critters and prefer the woods over most everything so I'm out daily, sometimes weekly just scrounging. I can always find something to eat for supper or something to make jelly out of there.

Nice picture. I imagine those white blackberries are delicious. Probably would make a delicious jelly. I already have black berries growing, actually a few too many. I did plant some of the European blackberries, and am anxious to see if they will grow here.

google white blackberry and you'll see there are none to be had, cept in california and it's high priced and has to be inspected before leaving and that costs too. I hope some of my winners can get these things to grow and spread them around they are so dang pretty.
