Look at the size of these. Got them at a little farm store close by..I've never seen them this big before..

I have some growing in my orchard.. The small ones are wild blackberries and are tart and the big boys are the sweeter ones.. They are yummy aren't they?!?! I love makin jams with them..

Looks like you have the makings for a yummy pie in your future... Lol.

droool ... drooooool ... :D Beautiful berries! Lucky you! .. Enjoy! :D

YUMMY!! A Blackberry cobbler sounds good.

Looks yummy!!! --drool--

Oh my goodness, It's almost midnight here and all I want to do is go in the kitchen and make a Blackberry cobbler...I will resist, I will resist...till tomorrow, anyway..LOL

Actually, I believe those are marionberries. In my opinion, they're better than blackberries!

MMmmmmmmmm I picked a nice bowl full of those yesterday from my back yard. Have only a couple volunteer vines but the produce a lot. Already had some Blackberry cobbler last week from my berries

Keep some of the seeds and see if you can get them to sprout. They would probably need some time in the fridge, to mimic the cold of winter after they are ripe.

They look yummy! I like to make pies with blackberries.
Blackberry pie and vanilla ice cream. Making myself hungry.

I got some last week, the biggest and best ever. I want to go get more Friday.

Well I live in Marion so that is appropriate...LOL

Oooowww, I didn't think about that, I'll try it. I know my fig trees are loaded too so I'll have a lot of figs too.

oooooo......sure does!!!!!! :shock: :shock: :shock: If you make it, we will come!!! :lol: :lol:

LOL Not too many people know this but I have this problem...if I make it I will eat it all, every bite.There will be none left. .It's a problem I have with pies and powered donuts!! :roll:

Mouth watering

Ummmm.... Love those berries!

hmmmm, blackberry wine comes to mind...

They look YUMMY!

give them to shon and get a pie!!!!!

I loooove blackberries. Those look awesome.

I bought some yesterday here at a farmers market in Al. they are very good. I made a blackberry bar with some and have enough for a pie or cobbler...yum!

The blackberries are all done here in South Arkansas. My thorny ones were big, but not that big. I picked gallons of them. The thornless ones are just now done. They aren't so big and aren't as prolific. The cardinals got the last of them.

Those are beautiful berries, cobbler & ice cream does sound good. We don't have any fresh blackberries here, so I'm limited to frozen.

WOw only ones I've seen that big are mulberries. So what time will the pie be ready?

Wow. What beauties! I'm enjoying a bumper crop of raspberries, strawberries and blueberries. I think it must be all the rain. The blackberries aren't quite ready, but they are plumping up! Yum!

I can smell the cobbler right now, from here. Drool, drool!

YUMMY!!!!

When I was growing up my grandma always called those big berries Boysenberries. You seen them a lot interspersed with regular blackberries. They sure were yummy and it didn't take long to fill your bucket. That was the best part.LOL

We're not having a large crop of blackberries this year because it's been so dry but the ones we have a huge and sweet. I rarely have enough at one time for a cobbler or jam, but I'll post a recipe I tried that made a wonderful little cake with just a cup of blackberries. DH and I polished it off pretty darn fast!!

Growing up here in Ala, we had a Neighbor Lady who made Blackberry Wine to soak her Fruit Cakes in, come Holiday Season. My Dad would know about when she'd have the cakes ready every year, so he'd go over & be gone awhile & come back tanked on all the sugar & B. Wine in the cake. Back then, people visited much more often and most folks I knew had sweet deserts sitting on the table, usually covered, & when you'd go in they'd offer you a plate, fork and cup of coffee. Those were the good ole' days. When I watch The Waltons on TV it reminds me of back then.

I just made blackberry jelly this morning, dug some of last years berries and some apple cores I saved (for pectin) out of the freezer. Our berries won't be ready for another month although the black raspberries are pinking up. They make the best ice cream.

My mouth is watering. They are my favorites!

Those don't look like blackberries. Can't think what my parents called theirs. We had both blackberries and some which looked like what you have. They were so good, better than blackberries.

Wow. Brings back memories of picking blackberries along the stone fence row on my aunt and uncles farm as a kid. They were so sweet and worth risking an occasional runin with a black snake.

We picked huge canning kettles full of them.

We've just moved to a new house and I've planted rhubarb, raspberries, current and blackberries. Not the first place that we have lived where we have planted berries. LOL. We usually end up moving just when the plants are starting to bear fruit. I've wondered whether the those who moved in appreciated our gift or saw the bushes as something to pull out as quick as possible.

At our country place we had some big ones like that growing wild, right before the blackberries were ready, Grandkids and I would pick them and eat them without washing. They still remember, we always picked enough to eat later and maybe make a cobbler with.

DH planted blackberries again this year. We've had berries that big and so sweet.

You're reminding me to get out and check our wild blackberry bushes this weekend! Hoping to get to them before all of the animals do. I'm sure I'll miss enough that they'll eat too.

Those aren't wild blackberries, they are the thornless variety. We have them and they get as big as your thumb. I think they are sour, maybe there are newer varieties that are sweet. We will have bunches of them in a few weeks. I prefer the black raspberries, they are just ripening. Nothing can beat black raspberry jelly. too bad I am diabetic. I haven't had any luck with the sugar-free pectin so far but will keep on trying.

YUM! I bet they are delicious!!!
