**Northern dewberry** (*Rubus flagellaris*) is a small shrub native to the lower 48 states of the United States and found in the state of Maryland; it may or may not be *native* to Maryland.

## Identification

Its foliage is typically green. It has white flowers which appear in late spring. Black fruit, which may be edible (but consult a reliable source before eating), is produced in great abundance from summer to fall.

It grows rapidly in thickets to a height of about 3 feet with roots at least 6 inches deep, and has a lifespan under a hundred years. It will readily resprout even if cut down to the ground.

## Cultivation

The USDA believes this plant to be readily available for purchase. It is suitable for growing in a nursery. It is propagated by the following methods: bare root, container, cuttings, seed, sprigs. Seeds will be more successful if cold stratification is used. Typically, this plant will seed itself at a rapid rate, and new seedlings will have a high chance of success compared to other plants of this type.

Soil preferences: coarse/medium/fine soil, pH 5-7, low fertilizer. Provide high moisture. This plant has no salinity tolerance and low drought tolerance. It tolerates partial shade.

## Uses and Relationships
