wild blackberry
Thorny hedgerow fruit
Wild blackberry refers to blackberry plants growing uncultivated in nature, as opposed to domesticated varieties bred for commercial production.
Wild blackberries typically have smaller, more intensely flavored fruit and thornier canes than their cultivated cousins.
They grow abundantly along roadsides, forest edges, and disturbed areas: We picked wild blackberries along the trail.
The term distinguishes foraged berries from store-bought ones.
