Loch Ness
Thornless, upright, and well-behaved — the blackberry that doesn't try to take over your garden. Big, glossy berries from August into October, and you can pick them without looking like you've lost a fight with a cat.

Blackberry and apple crumble
Tumble blackberries and sliced apple into a dish, top with a rubble of butter, flour, sugar, and oats. Bake until the fruit bubbles through the golden crust. Serve with custard. The autumn pudding against which all others are measured.
