Enjoy Fresh Blackberries from Your Own Garden

These blackberry plants offer a unique opportunity to harvest delicious, large blackberries in your very first year! Unlike many blackberry varieties, these are primocane fruiting, meaning they produce fruit on new growth. The thornless canes make harvesting a breeze, perfect for gardeners of all levels. These plants are an excellent choice for home gardens and farmer’s markets, providing a consistent yield of semi-firm, sweet berries.

These plants will arrive as blackberry plugs, ready to be planted in your garden. We recommend spacing them 5-6 feet apart to allow for optimal growth. With well-drained soil and a pH level between 6.0 and 6.8, your blackberry plants will thrive and produce an abundance of fruit. A second crop will follow on older canes, extending your harvest season.
