Thornless Blackberries

It may be argued that the exceptional taste of a homegrown blackberry is worth the hassle of thorns, but you can still enjoy the rich, sweet flavor of homegrown blackberries harvested from thornless bushes! Around the turn of the 20th century, thornless sports – a naturally occurring variation of typically thorned blackberry canes – were discovered in the United States. Since then, several different thornless blackberry varieties have been cultivated for fruit gardens.

No thorns, no tears! Growing thornless blackberry plants means you and your family can leave the gloves and long sleeves inside when you pick these summer treats.
