Health benefits:
Boysenberries—a cross between a raspberry, blackberry, dewberry and loganberry—are packed with fiber, vitamins and minerals.
Research shows that they can help lower blood pressure and aid in preventing fat absorption in the gastrointestinal tract.
Since they have lots of antioxidants like other berries, boysenberries can help you maintain a healthy brain and protect against cognitive aging, cell damage and Alzheimer’s.
Characteristics
Boysenberries grow on low, trailing plants and are characterized by their soft texture, thin skins, and sweet-tart flavor.
Mature fruits leak juice very easily and can start to decay within a few days of harvest
