I've been wondering about this for a while, and I've come to the conclusion that blackberries are probably the original thing. Brambles grow like weeds all over Europe, I don't think anyone is cultivating them to be different. Apples definitely have had a human hand in selecting the best apples to start fresh orchards with.
I'm open to correction though.
You're asserting that Banksy gets permission from the owner of the wall before they paint on it? If so there's a lot of people out there pretending to know nothing about it when some art appears on their walls.
