| In the arboretum, you can find several large patches of dewberry (Rubus trivialis). This is such a weedy plant; it volunteers across campus. Only a few patches are officially in the arboretum catalogue. |
 |
| Dewberries turn black when they are ready to eat. They aren't sweet, but they are wonderful in fruit smoothies. |
 |
| The little black fruits are numerous, just be careful when picking them, as the vine is covered in prickles. Ouch! |
 |
| In the arboretum, you can find mulberries (Morus rubra) in one location: on the grassy slope north of Cline Hall dormitory. There are three trees currently producing fruit. Like the dewberry, the mulberry turns black when it ripens. |
