Anyone grown any of these . Saw them in the garden centre today wondered if I should give them a try for something different .

I've never heard of them?
Mind you, there are lots of combination-bred berries around these days.
My Mum used to grow loganberries when I was little - and few people had heard of them then! They are a cross raspberry-blackberry.
What's a Framberry then?

Another one here never heard of them. I am desperate to try cloudberries too.

Any info on them would be great.

Just googled seems to be a cross between a strawberry and a raspberry. Not sure I fancy that, would like to know how it grows, what it looks like, what it tastes like and what sort of harvest can be expected. Lots of conflicting stuff

Went out and bought two plants to see what they are like .  They have flowers on them so hopefully will be able to see if they taste special or not . Husband said I just have to put a strawberry and raspberry in my mouth to find out what it will taste of. Maybe he has  a point will come back when I have tasted them.
