A new day in cane fruit has arrived and our thornless blackberries represent the finest blackberry fruit ever produced along with hardy, trouble free plants.  Well, trouble free as much as blackberries can be trouble free.  These vigorous plants require training in a trellis of some sort in order to keep them off the ground.  Canes as tall as a person are common in a single season.  All canes must then be removed each year and disposed of by burning or removing from the site, creating an additional task. 

Aside from these annual chores these are extremely rewarding plants.  Each year you will be rewarded with a bounty of large (an inch or more in height is common) sweet berries, as much as 30 pounds per bush in the case of Triple Crown which also is outstanding in taste and fruit quality.  The amount you receive will, of course, depend on the quality of the soil which they are planted in and the care which you give them.
