Black raspberry
Black raspberry (Rubus occidentalis) perfectly complements my red raspberries here as the one finishes as the other begins! I had my first blacks today (14th September 2015), seed propagated from a US variety Black Hawk some years ago…
Another reason to grow it is that a Polish study showed they contained 3 times the antioxidants as red raspberries and blackberries: http://www.digitaljournal.com/life/health/black-raspberries-are-the-antioxidant-superfood/article/453955

Alan Kapuler on GMOs
Wonderful, must see for anyone interested in GMOs and plant breeding! What an amazing, intelligent and warm human being Kapuler is… I was so fortunate to spend a day with Kapuler in his gardens and home on my recent visit to Oregon….I was blown away by the guy…such a warm human being too..
