Rubus ulmifolius (fruticosus) Blackberry Zarazamora
Wikipedia:
Rubus is a large genus of flowering plants in the family Rosaceae, subfamily Rosoideae. Raspberries, blackberries, and dewberries are common, widely distributed members of the genus. Most of these plants have woody stems with prickles like roses; spines, bristles, and gland-tipped hairs are also common in the genus. The Rubus fruit, sometimes called a bramble fruit, is an aggregate of drupelets.
The blackberries, as well as various other Rubus species with mounding or rambling growth habits, are often called brambles. However, this name is not used for those like the raspberry that grow as upright canes, or for trailing or prostrate species such as most dewberries, or various low-growing boreal, arctic, or alpine species.
The genus Rubus is believed to have existed since at least 23.7 to 36.6 million years ago.
The blackberry is an aggregate fruit from a bramble bush, genus Rubus in the rose family Rosaceae. It is a widespread and well known group of several hundred species, many of which are closely related apomictic microspecies native throughout the temperate Northern hemisphere.
In botanical terminology, the fruit is not a berry, but an aggregate fruit of numerous drupelets ripening to black or dark purple, the "blackberry".
The blackberry tends to be red during its unripe ("green") phase, leading to an old expression that "blackberries are red when they're green".
La zarza (Rubus ulmifolius) es un arbusto de aspecto sarmentoso, cuyas ramas, espinosas y de sección pentagonal, pueden crecer hasta 3 metros. Pertenece a la familia de las rosáceas y es popularmente conocido por sus frutos, un tipo de moras conocido como zarzamoras.
Su nombre científico deriva del latín "ruber" (rojo), por el color de sus frutos y el epíteto específico hace referencia al parecido de sus folíolos con las hojas del olmo (Ulmus minor).
La zarzamora es una fruta del bosque dulce muy popular en pastelería para la preparación de postres, mermeladas y jaleas y, a veces, vinos y licores.
