Ruby Tuesday

I found this thing in my mom's garden.
She didn't plant it (she's 92, and a bad back
has made planting anything off-limits for a
few years now).  So this patch pretty much tends
itself—except for a bit of weeding done by me,
who can't always tell a weed from a wisteria.
I think it looks like a mutant raspberry.
Anyone know its true identity?

  1. I don't care what it is! It looks juicy and just right to sink your teeth in! Slurrp!
    Very nice capture!

  3. I don't know what it is either but it sure looks like it would go great with some cream and sugar...and maybe some chocolate.

  4. It does look good, but odd. And I see two yellow aphids, I think. Protein!

  5. I cannot identify, but it is indeed a glorious red!

    Give your mom a big hug from a blog friend (moi)
