Re: Iris and Ivy
Again Australia-blackberries were brought there, way back, I suppose, and they loved the climate more than England's. At least in Tasmania, I don't know about the rest of AU.
The sheep farmers dislike them, as they replace the grass, and have big thorns that the sheep get tangled up in.
At least the berries are great-I use to buy them at markets, and jams and jellies people made.
I didn't pick them, though.somehow the thickets looked snakey, though I doubt the snakes liked blackberries, or crawling over thorns. I was wary of snakes in Australia, as the snakes we have in my province are mild-mannered garter snakes that I've never heard of biting anyone, and certainly not venomous. I'd never heard of Himalayan blackberry.Invasive species, so easy to take hold, so hard to eradicate.
