TIP:  HANDLING BAREROOT SEEDLINGS Bareroot seedlings should be planted as soon as they arrive, but if this is not possible, you may handle them as follows: If at all possible, leave the plants in the box and packing in which they arrived, just making certain that the material around the roots has not dried out and that the tops of the plants are dry. Keep the box in a cool place, around 33-38F or store in a cool location, such as a basement or cellar. Do not store near fresh produce or cut flowers as these produce ethylene gas, which is toxic to live plants.

One of the oldest known crops to be cultivated in the Americas turns out to be a Super Food.  Information now coming out in new studies of the curative properties of this fruit may be what the Adena and Hopewell peoples of North America knew 2,000 years ago.
  Woodland Black Cap™ - Black fruit with sweet, rich flavor and loaded with antioxidants. Although R. silvis is the ancestor of what are sometimes called 'black raspberries' or thimbleberry , this is not a berry, but is an aggregate fruit and this variety produces a black 1/2 - 5/8 inch diameter round fruit on the end of the stems that has a much richer and distinctive taste. When the fruit of Rubus occidentalis silvis first forms like a Cap on the end of each stem, it is Light Green then turning white.  As the fruit grows it slowly goes through a spectrum of colors turning a Yellow then through Beige to Pink; then from Bright Red to Deep Red to Purple. Eventually it turns Blue and then Darker Blue.  Time to eat when it is Dark Dark Blue (Black).  All of the colors in one fruit!  Mid-season ripening.  Plant height: 9ft.  Winter hardy to -20F degrees (-30 C.)
