A carefully curated selection of blackberry cultivars provides growers with an exciting array of fruiting times, flavors, and growth habits. This diverse assortment is perfect for those who appreciate variety in both their harvests and the ornamental appeal of their gardens. These cultivars are favored for their reliability and adaptability to UK gardens, producing sweet, glossy black berries that can be enjoyed fresh or transformed into delicious jams. With fruiting periods ranging from mid-summer to early autumn, these blackberries ensure a prolonged harvest season that delights gardeners and fruit enthusiasts alike.
The collection includes both thornless and thorny varieties, showcasing a spectrum of fruit sizes, sweetness levels, and colors, which can range from classic black to occasional reddish or dark purple hues. These plants are versatile in their growth habits, making them suitable for training on wires, trellises, or even allowing them to sprawl along fences and walls. This adaptability makes them an excellent choice for gardens with ample space for bramble growth, where they can thrive and create a lush, fruitful display.
To ensure optimal growth, blackberries prefer fertile, moist, yet well-drained soil, ideally situated in sunny or partially shaded areas. Regular pruning is essential after fruiting, which involves either removing the fruited canes or trimming the primocanes as needed. Hardy enough to withstand most winter conditions in the UK, these plants typically do not require additional protection. However, they can benefit from a layer of mulch in spring and a feeding of general-purpose fertilizer to promote healthy growth and abundant fruit production.

Live Plants
Dobies strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.
