Tulameen is a great raspberry. I know that Willamette is at the top of the list for flavor among PNW raspberry varieties. Meeker is quite good as well. If you want a fall-bearer, Anne (a golden one) is delish.

As to strawberries, if you're used to eating PNW varieties such as Benton, Hood, and Totem, you'll likely be disappointed by other varieties. IMO, the only eastern variety that can even come close to PNW varieties in flavor is Earliglow, and you should just forget about anything developed for the California market! None of the everbearing varieties are nearly as good. I don't have any experience with the French and Italian Alpine types, but remember that the PNW varieties were essentially "made" to grow in Salem!

There aren't many blueberry varieties I wouldn't grow, but I personally dislike Duke (not enough acid to balance the sugar when fully ripe, so I think they're bland) and Elliott (late, but extremely acidic with low sugar).

If you're used to the yummy blackberries that grow wild in the PNW, you'll likely be disappointed with the flavor of Arapaho. I'd choose one of the thornless varieties from the USDA program based in Corvallis. I included a link to the page where you can read about them.

I'm curious if somebody has grown Black Diamond or Black Pearl I'd like to hear their results.

I'm in Vancouver, WA and am growing 5 varieties. I got my first fruit last year.

ORUS 1843: from Corvallis is really delicious. They have the best flavor of the ones I grew (at least last year). They are quite trailing and want to go all over the place. I clip them to the cyclone fence with plastic C-clips. The berries are quite small and soft and can be hard to pick without squishing when they are very ripe.

Nightfall: They aren't lying when they say these are tart. Wow! Even when dead ripe they still cause a pucker. They give a zing though, kind of like sweettart candies. I like to mix them 50/50 with ripe blueberries to make pie. Its delicious. They are very high quality, the best of mine in my growing conditions. I pick a bowl of these 10X as fast as the ORUS 1843.

I also have Apache, something that was mislabeled as Triple Crown, and Lochness. All three of those had problems with sunscald and perhaps irregular watering so I don't want to judge them too harshly, but I'm skeptical I'll like them as well as the 2 from Oregon.

Blackberries: Grow Black Satin (different from black diamond) for cooking and Triple Crown for fresh eating.

Much success with these in PDX. Since you are in Marion county, home to the original Marionberry, you could try those if thorns are not a problem.

I have to admit I want to grow a no muss no fuss thornlss raspberry and black berry on the other side of my fence and I probably won't be watering them much but I would be happy if they meyandered in the direction so I don't have to have that part mowed any more.

I like "Caroline" raspberries. Big, productive, very tasty. I'm ordering another lot of them and when my identical twin girls grandkids come up to the mountains to visit Grandpa, we are going to have a fun planting session and they can experience gardening and start a tradition... I hope.

We have 25 Triple Crown Blackberries and their fresh taste is like wine. Up here they ripen Sept - Oct and some years the rains hit them. They are very productive and we've had no disease problem. And they make great blackberry wine and port.Tom
