Raspberry Leaf

Garden raspberry is a shrubby plant that is widely cultivated for its fruit but which also grows wild in and around forests in Europe. Growing as high as 6 feet, the biennial stems have few or no prickles and bear alternate, pinnate cordate leaflets which are usually downy white underneath. Clusters of one to six white flowers appear in the upper axils during spring and summer of the second year, producing the familiar red fruit which ripens later during the summer.
