The loganberry continues to do very well in the corner of the garden, protected on both sides by my high fencing. It is now in flower and attracting loads of bees, which is always a good thing. At the base of the plant, new shoots are being thrust out of the soil, ready for flowers and fruit next year. The old canes will be cut down later in the year, when the canes have finished making fruit. When you think of the price of plants and how much they give you when they are taken care of, it seems like a real bargain to me sometimes. I suppose I paid about £6 for the plant at the garden centre a couple of years ago but the loganberry needs very little care, just a bit of feeding now and then, and it will more than pay for itself in fruit. The fruit is quite purple when ripe and just as nice as raspberries.
