Raspberry is the edible fruit of many plants in Rubus of Rosa, most of which are under the genus IDA babats. The name also applies to the plants themselves.

Raspberry perennial, woody stem.

The name raspberry comes from raspberry, a "sweet rose wine" (mid-15th century), from the Anglo Latin (vinum raspeys), or from the German origin of raspoie (meaning "thickcket"). The name may be affected by its appearance, which has a rough surface associated with an old English file or "rough berry.".
