If: Exposed, inland, or a frost-pocket site or Not sure, just give me the safest all-round choice
Standard loganberry
Its H7 hardiness gives it a margin the other two don't have on an exposed or inland site, at no cost to fruit quality. For most Scottish gardens it's the best overall pick.
If: Small, sheltered garden, and thorns are a real nuisance
'Ly 654'AGM
Thornless, which matters in a small, sheltered garden where thorns are a genuine nuisance, at the cost of two hardiness bands (H5 instead of H7). It also carries the same H5 rating as 'Ly 59' without the thorns, so there's no situation where 'Ly 59' beats it.
