My Waldo Blackberry, newly planted in a massive pot in early spring, is doing very well, with lots of fruit.  Most of the leaves are green and healthy, but some look like this. Any idea what is causing it?  Should I be worried?  Thanks for any info 😊

    Nothing to worry about - my Waldo gets similar marks on the leaves. I don't know what causes them other than it's some bug sucking on the underside of the leaf.

    Waldo is a cultivated bramble - so there's not many bugs that are going to cause it harm.
    The berries on mine are just starting to show hints of red atm, and looking like a good harvest.

    Ah, OK @Pete.8.  Thank you, was hoping it was harmless.
