brambleberries

Wild hedge berries

Brambleberries is the plural of brambleberry, a general term for fruits that grow on thorny bushes of the genus Rubus—blackberries, raspberries, dewberries, and their relatives.

The word emphasizes the prickly, tangled growth habit of the plants: We picked brambleberries along the fence line, scratching our arms in the process.
