Wineberry plants are quite rare in the UK, but definitely deserve wider planting as they are easy to grow and produce the most wonderful fruits. The little 'wine-red' fruits look a lot like raspberries, they have the same uses as raspberries but only differ as they have a sweeter taste. For those of you that find some raspberries a bit too sharp, this is the plant for you. You can eat them fresh or cook them up into a deliciously sweet jam. The deciduous bushes are low- maintainance and produce the best fruit when trained against a sunny wall.
