Rubus ursinus 'Wild Treasure'

(formerly ORUS 1843-3) The wild meets the thornless! An incredible find for the backyard gardener. Oregon State University researchers have crossed the uniquely delicious flavor of the Cascade Trailing Blackberry with the thornless 'Waldo' variety to make a self fertile selection perfect for your garden. Wild Treasure vines are very productive and the fruits are so sweet and delicious they amaze judges and win every tasting panel.

They average two grams in weight, about 1/3 the size of a Marionberry but more than twice the size of their wild cousins. Trellising will keep the thin canes off the ground and make them easier to harvest from. USDA Zones 7-9.

Size: 4" Pot

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Ask a Question
  • Should I be concerned about possible hybridization between this selection and other local native species of blackberry/Rubus?

    Yes and no. Cross pollination will not change the quality of the fruit, but any viable seed from the fruit will by a hybrid.

  • What is the recommended spacing?

    As a crown-based crawling vine, spacing is kind of irrelevant. You can do it as little as a foot apart, but they will spread an unlimited range over time.
