If you get the plants from the Fedco Tree sale, you might not want to plant the feral raspberries and blackberries. (if they are wild, I wouldn't, but if they are a cultivated berry that has just gone rogue, then they might be worth saving.) I believe the purples I got from Fedco are Royal purple.
I believe cultivars gone rogue... but I'm not 100%. I have 120 ft of fence I'm planting along. Maybe I can start them on opposite ends, just to make sure the feral ones aren't full-on wild. If they aren't I can transplant more next year. And the next, etc... they look like they've been lurking on the edge of the woods for a LONG time and someone did live down there decades ago. I love me some raspberries...
I'll let you know once we're in the swing of spring if we can take some of those items off your hands
