Blackberries will not ripen after picking. Berries produced on thorny bushes are tarter and hold their flavor better in cooking. Berries produced on thornless bushes are normally sweeter. Find the biggest, plumpest, berries on the bottom of the bush, out of sight, under the bush. Mid August Figs are one of the most nutritious fruits that you can eat.
Figs are unusual in that they bear their flowers on the inside of the fruit.
