American Blackberry

Rubus armeniacus

Description:

Blackberries are perennial plants which typically bear biennial stems ("canes") from the perennial root system.

Habitat:

Unmanaged mature plants form a tangle of dense arching stems, the branches rooting from the node tip on many species when they reach the ground. Vigorous and growing rapidly in woods, scrub, hillsides and hedgerows, blackberry shrubs tolerate poor soils, readily colonizing wasteland, ditches and vacant lots.

Notes:

Saw in WG Jones state forest
