Bareroot Blackberry, Prime Ark Freedom - PREORDER for May 6 fulfillment

DUE TO HIGH DEMAND WE ARE BACKORDERED ON THIS ITEM. New stock is incoming. Orders placed now have an estimate shipping window of May 6 - May 10. Our most popular plant at Sarvodaya Farms. Prime-Ark Freedom blackberry is unreal! The plant is completely thornless, and has an upright growth habit. The fruit is the really crazy part though: berries can literally be 4 inches long and 2 inches fat. The flavor is rich, juicy, and seeds are relatively small.  Just unbelievable. The variety was created through conventional breeding and has not been genetically engineered.This blackberry variety is disease resistant and drought tolerant.  In Southern California, expect first harvest as soon as temperatures are regularly in the 80s.  Fruit will continue coming all summer in successive waves, except when temperatures are regularly above 95 degrees. The Prime-Ark Freedom blackberry does best in full sun and loamy, well-drained soil. It is self-pollinating and was originally part of the University of Arkansas’s primocane breeding program and is the first primocane-fruiting thornless blackberry ever. This means more fruit faster as it fruits on new growth unlike most other blackberries. This extends the fruit harvest time too as new canes will produce early season berries, while the older canes will produce later season berries.
