Rose City Bluff Restoration is lucky to have at least two areas with a healthy coverage of trailing blackberry (Rubus ursinus). We don’t know if it was seeded by birds, nor do we know if it appeared before or after 2001 when former Rose City Golf superintendent, Jim Heck, spearheaded a significant restoration of the bluff. Though we haven’t planted any trailing blackberry ourselves, we encourage it by managing the Armenian blackberry that wants to take over. Thankfully, we have the space for this native blackberry.
