What's ollalieberry? Never heard that descriptor used before is all.

It's a common berry grown here in Santa Cruz County. It a cross between a loganberry and a youngberry. It tastes similar to a blackberry with some raspberry thrown in.

Ah, I'll have to try some the next time I'm in the area, sounds delicious!

I once saw a chart that showed all the "berries" and what was crossed with what to make this or that. I can't find it now, but this is a decent list with some explanation: http://www.foodsubs.com/Fruitber.html
