I was quite disappointed when I received this newspaper clipping as a Christmas gift......that was until I read it! - Two of these Miracle Blackberry Bushes are on their way this spring.
This Miracle Blackberry Bush seems too-good-to-be-true!
"World Famous Doyle's Blackberry Bush" is:
-thornless
- yields 10 to 20 GALLONS per plant
- grows in USA & Canada (needs extra protection in -20 degrees or colder)
- doubles as an ornamental bush since the blossoms are so numerous
- very large berries
- ripe fruit for 4 to 6 weeks
Sounds too-good-to-be-true - it takes about 3 years for the plant to be fully established - so I will let you know if it lives up to it's description in a few years.

Love blackberries! Can't imagine one with no thorns though. We always picked blackberries as kids and my mother made the best blackberry jelly.
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice gift! Too bad you have to wait 3 years though! Hope there are a few blackberries in the interim! I remember picking blackberries at my grandparents and then Grandma would make some delicious pies!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my blog today! I'm following you as Magnolia's Attic!
I always loved my grandmother's blackberry cobbler. No thorns...that's great!
