Rubus laciniatus is a deciduous, bramble-forming shrub growing to 3 meters (10 feet) tall, with prickly shoots. The leaves are palmately compound, with five leaflets, each divided into deeply toothed subleaflets with jagged, thorny tips.
Suitable for: light (sandy), medium (loamy) and heavy (clay) soils and prefers well-drained soil. Suitable pH: acid, neutral and basic (alkaline) soils. It can grow in semi-shade (light woodland) or no shade.
The plant does well in moist soil of various textures (sand, clay or loam) and a variety of pH conditions. Prefers well-drained soil and light (woodland) to full sun. 'Oregon Cutleaf Thornless' is a cultivar with great fruit flavor and production and no prickles on the stems, which makes it easy to harvest.
flowers and fruit appear on last season’s canes (branches), seldom on new shoots, which means one must be cautious when pruning and not remove the canes that will yield next year's berries.
