Fruit Alphabetical List - BlackBerry

The BlackBerry is an aggregate fruit composed of many smaller fruits called drupes.

The Blackberry fruit is very dark purple with smooth, sensitive skin. In the middle of the cluster is a green-white core that extends to almost the bottom of the berries.

Blackberries can be easily confused with raspberries, but raspberries have a hollow center. Blackberries are red when unripe and hard and black and shiny as they mature.
