OK, so there are barely enough berries to add to a bowl of ice cream. Nevertheless, given that I didn't have to plant them or fuss over them in any way and I still got delicious berries in my bowl, I'm a very happy gardener. Three cheers for urban wilderness and a nod of thanks to the birds who I suspect were responsible for "planting the seeds" as it were.

@Sara: Thanks! So I was about to go on about how it was such a dilemma whether to let more of the berry bushes grow next spring at the expense of the other plants or to limit them but I realized as I typed that the answer was a no-brainer. Part of the idea behind letting the garden grow "wild" was to let plants seed themselves and if in so doing I end up with lots of delicious black raspberries, who am I to object? :-)
