Need help being positive about these berries. Looks like raspberries (or not yet darkened blackberries lol), meets a lot of the criteria, but I’d love second and third opinions before I go picking in the backyard. Thanks everyone!

    Raspberry indeed. If they were blackberries they would already be turning black. The ripe ones should basically fall off the vine into your hand

    If not ripe when red, then black raspberries.

    I agree raspberries. if they don’t slip off the vine easily, they aren’t ready to pick yet 🙂

    My guess is unripe black raspberries – delicious little things, I wish I had some in my yard!

    At first glance I thought they were wild strawberries, but I agree they look to be raspberries. Enjoy and where are all you people who just stumble upon these amazing plants? I live in the plains area want a bush that isn’t very nice? I have seen the perfect one. We do have a lot of cactus though, so easy to propagate.

    I’d wait to pick just a bit to see if it’s Rubus occidentalis, which are raspberries but will turn black when ripe. The white stem makes me think it is
