Snowbank White Blackberry is a deciduous blackberry shrub, but with a distinctive, and unique white fruit. This shrub is prized for its fruit’s special translucent, milky white colour. Fruits are considered to have a sweet flavour similar to other blackberries. Best eaten fresh or used for baking.

White, self-pollinating flowers appear on long canes in May and June, giving way to the snow-white berries that ripen throughout July and August. Snowbank White Blackberry flowers are beneficial to pollinator species like bees and butterflies.

This shrub vigorously grows long, trailing stems and may be best planted along a wall, trellis, or staked to prevent tipping over. Rubus 'Snowbank' is an old cultivar introduced in 1916 by Luther Burbank, and has recently come back into popularity.
