Rubus fruticosus Thornless Blackberry is a gardener’s delight — vigorous, productive, and easy to harvest without the worry of sharp spines. These hardy berry shrubs produce masses of sweet, dark purple to black fruits through mid to late summer, following a charming display of white or pink blossoms in late spring. The glossy, dark green foliage forms a dense, bushy plant that makes an attractive addition to the edible garden or a soft feature along a fence or trellis. The berries are perfect for eating fresh, adding to desserts, or turning into homemade jams and preserves. For best results, prune during winter or early spring to remove old, weak, or damaged canes and maintain a tidy, open shape. Thornless Blackberries thrive with strong support and regular care, rewarding you with an abundant harvest year after year.
