A guide to choosing the right size
Blackmoor Nursery is one of very few Nurseries in the UK offering gardeners the opportunity to buy Blackberry plants direct from our Nursery.
All orders are despatched in one delivery. If your order contains both bare root and container grown plants then we can only despatch when all plants are ready.
3 Litre = Container grown and can be planted all year round. The size refers to the number of litres of compost that the container holds.
Plant 6–10 feet apart (1.8–3 m).
Subsequently pruning is similar to raspberries, canes that have fruited are cut out immediately after fruiting.
situation
If blackberry plants are in waterlogged soils for more than a few days at a time, they normally die a slow death from lack of aeration (oxygen) or from subsequent attack by root diseases.
Plants do best in a well-drained, fertile, loam soil with moderate water holding capacity. Avoid heavy clay soils.
Sometimes you can improve a less desirable site by tilling, increasing organic matter content and building raised beds.

Blackberry Plants
Blackberries produce best in full sun, but they can tolerate partial shade. However, plants do not grow or produce well in heavy shade. Blackberries are sensitive to wet soils. Therefore, drainage is an important factor to consider when you're selecting a site. Blackberry growing guide click here>
