American Red Raspberry

 Rubus idaeus ssp. Strigosus

I rarely see wild raspberries, but when I do, I paint them.

Besides having delicious fruit, Raspberry leaves have traditionally been used in a tea to treat diarrhea, and painful menstrual cramps. The leaves and roots were used in a gargle to treat tonsilitis and even to treat wounds and burns.
