Not much for flavor which is why most of the time it is blended with other flavors. I just plucked them off my raspberry plants in my garden. Those darn raspberries never produced one flipping berry and I figured they might as well be useful. I got more raspberries off the wild plants in the forest near our house!<br />RoseyChloe mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02265196480664185330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6102266899310858136.post-75527853465560511792010-11-15T09:09:18.840-05:002010-11-15T09:09:18.840-05:00There really are a lot of lovely blooming flowers ...There really are a lot of lovely blooming flowers here.
