How to use Triple Crown Thornless Blackberry in the landscape?
Triple Crown offers more than just delicious berries; the flowers are also very decorative! Similar in appearance to roses, the white flowers bloom in spring just before transforming into the glossy berries that you’ll crave. A midsummer producer, Triple Crown produces juicy berries that are great for eating right off the thornless bush in the summertime.
How To Plant Triple Crown Thornless Blackberry
Triple Crown enjoys the benefits of full sun and can thrive in part shade as well. Blackberries enjoy being planted in soil that is acidic, rich in organic matter, moist, and well-draining. Be sure not to plant blackberries in wet, soggy soil; these berries do not enjoy having wet feet. If the landscape has clay soil, planting raspberries in raised beds would be a great option to enjoy growing your fruit. Blackberries are self-fertile, so you do not need to plant another blackberry bush.
How To Water
Keep the top inch of soil moist for the first 2-3 weeks after planting your Triple Crow. For the first three weeks, water them during the day. Giving them about 1-2" per week in the growing season. In the harvesting season, you should be watering them about 4" per week.
How To Prune
After fruiting, prune all canes that produced fruit. Thoroughly prune late winter to early spring to remove any damage occurring during dormancy.

Bower & Branch allows our Growers to make final shipping decisions based solely to benefit your trees and plants’ health and success.
How Does Sizing Work?
The size of our trees have nothing to do with the container size like you may find elsewhere–big doesn't mean just height - it’s also vigor, age, and overall health. Other online retailers are going to tell you that a plant is a seven gallon, that means nothing to your tree or plant (or you.)
Our trees for sale online are graded on large, x-large, and even bigger sizes. This is because our trees are sized by their age—the higher the letter, the more mature the tree. The age determines the trees’ overall height, size of the trunk and the overall branch density.
All of these characteristics are what you should be looking for when choosing a tree for immediate impact and instant curb appeal. Our extra-large tree and plant sizes are sure to wow you and your neighbors!
