Description: Blackberry plants are fruiting shrubs. They belong to the genus Rubus in the rose family Rosaceae. Blackberry bushes produce fruits called blackberries. As members of the Rosaceae family, the cultivation of blackberries resembles that of rose bushes. Fortunately, blackberries are closer to wild roses in their ease of care than they are to a hybrid tea rose. Blackberries will tolerate many growing conditions. Sites with full sun are best for productive blackberry bushes. Some afternoon shade is tolerated, especially in areas with hot summers. Careful site selection will ensure a long life for your blackberries, which usually live for about a decade with proper care. The ideal soil is slightly acidic with good drainage; these plants do not do well in clay soil. An elevated site or raised beds will not only help drainage but will also prevent late spring frosts from damaging flower buds. Blackberries need moderate amounts of water, around 1 inch per week provided either by rainfall or from ground-level irrigation. Blackberries do not fare well in wet soils. Blackberry Variety Pack includes one each of four different blackberry varieties. The variety of each blackberry plant is hand-selected by our growers based on health, beauty, and seasonal availability. Potential varieties include: Navajo, Chester, Arapaho, Kiowa, Snowbank, Triple Crown, Sweetie Pie, Prime Ark Traveller, and Prime Ark Freedom. Blackberry plants are fruiting shrubs.
