Blackberry Plants 
Blackberries are at home on a cool, moist (but not wet) loamy or sandy soil, but they 
will succeed on any good soil if well managed. They require good cultivation or mulching and 
fertilizing and are among our most profitable small fruits. 
They should be planted the same distance as Black Cap Raspberries. 
We have found the following varieties best suited to conditions throughout Western 
Ontario.
