The Rubus ‘Loganobaccus’, also known as the Loganberry, is a deciduous bush born of the cross between Raspberry and blackberry to create a sturdy new species with lovely, dark red berries with a rich flavour. This hybridisation also makes its it a very sturdy plant, growing well in a wide range of soils and weather conditions. White flowers from early Summer followed by clusters of conical berries from mid-Summer into Autumn.
Plant in moist, fertile, well-drained soil and keep in full or partial sun in a sheltered position. Water regularly until properly established but avoid waterlogging. Some longer canes may require supports.

Garden Plant Size Guide
Plants in larger pots can be multiple years older than their smaller counterparts with more mature root systems and foliage. This makes them able to thrive as a full size plant in your garden quicker than smaller alternatives.
The most common size of pot that garden plants come in are 9cm/1L/3L/5L this is in reference to the diameter at the top of the pot.
9cm potted plants still remain the most popular cost effective option though, they just may take a little patience to allow them to grow into full maturity once planted in your garden.
