Rubus Pyramidalis Var. Flaccidus

Pyramidal raspberry, scientifically known as Rubus pyramidalis var. flaccidus, is a unique and lesser-known member of the Rosaceae family. Native to the mountainous regions of southern China, this plant thrives in cool, humid climates with well-drained soil. Its distinctive pyramidal shape and delicate, raspberry-like fruits set it apart from other raspberries. Despite its rarity, it has attracted attention from botanists and horticulturists for its ornamental value and potential culinary uses. As interest in rare and indigenous plants grows, the Pyramidal raspberry may soon gain more recognition in the world of plant enthusiasts.
