Raspberry

 Feed Sparingly
  • Common Name: Raspberry
  • Latin Name: Rubus spp., esp. Rubus idaeus
  • Family Name: Rosaceae
New leaf growth and flowers are fine in moderation, but Raspberry leaves do contain tannins and other astringent substances and some tortoises might find the taste unpalatable.  Do not feed the fruit unless your tortoise is a fruit-eating species.

Flowers are usually white but there are a few varieties in pale or deep pink.   See also Blackberry.
