BLACKBERRIES 
They make a much more fibrous rooted plant and grow 
off much quicker after setting. One planting lasts for 
several years, and the first crop generally more than pays 
for the entire investment. After the first crop, blackberry plants 
grow upright, standing in bunches and often attaining heights in 
excess of 6 feet. Despite the fact that we sell hundreds of thousands 
of blackberry plants to commercial growers every year, we sincerely 
believe that every home garden should contain several of these 
easily grown plants. Not only will they furnish plenty of big, tasty 
berries for making luscious cobblers, wines, jams and jellies, but 
will also enable you to sell plenty of left-overs.
