I am in Kane county. There are all over the place here. God planted these in my backyard (probably via some birds). I had some raised beds I no longer planted/tended. One day I am checking the back yard and I see a whole bunch of new canes growing. I now encourage them for the last 5-6 years.

I see them all the time in FP's in the area along the bike paths. They thrive in the long grass with good sun or any open areas not regularly mowed.

Nice fruits... Not something I'd say out loud if I were on the North side, but hey...

My folks had a huge blackberry/raspberry patch at their old house (Kane County). We'd pick gallons every year- pies and jam galore. Good stuff.
