    I have seen what appears to be 2 species of raspberries.
    One has large leaves and berries with many, small, 'nodules'
    (dont' know what botanically correct word is)
    and one has small leaves and berries with fewer, large, nodules
    What are these?

    Only the one on the right is a raspberry, the one with the big leaves is a thimbleberry.

    Thanks, Ron!

    I guess the 'nodules' are really called drupelets.
