Quick Question about a Blackberry Bush

Greetings to all, I have been reading this site for quite a while but this is my first actual post. I did not find this on any previous thread, but apologies in advance, in case I missed something.

 

So, with greetings AND apologies out of the way, here's my question:

 

In Path of Daggers, Rand gets a message from Taim talking about the numbers currently enrolled at the Black Tower. At the end, Taim writes something like:

 

"I harvested that blackberry bush myself. A small bush, and thorny, but surprisingly (fruitful??) for it's size."

 

To what is he referring? Rand seems to understand what he's talking about, and although I've read the books several times I can't figure out the reference.

Hello,

The blackberry bush is the Two Rivers. I understand that, although Logain doubted it, Rand sent Taim to take every male who is able to channel and bring them to the Tower, which Taim happily did. I take it the roughness had to do with Rand showing to the world how little he cares about his former home, though Taim really did take even near children.
