Has anyone come across a bramble like this? The side shoots had not developed at all and the flowers were in tight knots along the main stems. |

Is it a version of fasciata? I don't know if it can create this type of deformity though I have seen some strange shapes caused by it.

Thanks for these replies. Just to add that the plant produced normal-looking flowers.  |

In fact it has completely dried up...

Probably a good thing. I think Britain has enough Rubus species to be going on with  . | | |
