Halved raspberry Raspberry dessert with fresh cheese and honey. Rubus idaeus (raspberry, also called red raspberry or occasionally European red raspberry to distinguish it from other raspberry species) is a red-fruited species of Rubus native to Europe and northern Asia and commonly cultivated in other temperate regions.
A raspberry is an aggregate fruit, developing from the numerous distinct carpels of a single flower. [4] What distinguishes the raspberry from its blackberry relatives is whether or not the torus (receptacle or stem) "picks with" (i.e., stays with) the fruit. When picking a blackberry fruit, the torus stays with the fruit.
The Rubus fruit, sometimes called a bramble fruit, is an aggregate of drupelets. The term "cane fruit" or "cane berry" applies to any Rubus species or hybrid which is commonly grown with supports such as wires or canes, including raspberries, blackberries, and hybrids such as loganberry , boysenberry , marionberry and tayberry . [ 7 ]
The fruit is orange or red, about 1 cm diameter, edible, produced in summer or early autumn; in botanical terminology and like all members of Rubus, it is not a berry at all but an aggregate fruit of numerous drupelets around a central core. Ripening occurs from early summer. [7] [4] The canes have red glandular hairs.

The fruit is 1–1.2 centimetres (3 ⁄ 8 – 1 ⁄ 2 inch) diameter, red to reddish-purple at first, turning dark purple to nearly black when ripe. [6] The edible fruit [7] has high contents of anthocyanins and ellagic acid. [2] [8] R. leucodermis is similar to the eastern black raspberry (Rubus occidentalis). [8]
The fruit is sweeter, much larger, and more aromatic than that of the loganberry, itself a blackberry and red raspberry cross. The tayberry is grown for its edible fruits which can be eaten raw or cooked, but the fruit do not pick easily by hand and cannot be machine harvested, so they have not become a commercially grown berry crop.
