5 PrimeArk Freedom Thornless BlackBerry Plants

There are lots of blackberry bushes growing all over the place here. All have thorns.When I saw a YouTube video about a thornless variety, I jumped on Amazon and ordered some.I didn’t really read the description, so I was surprised to get 5 plants!They arrived in very good condition and carefully packed.All I had to do was stick them in the soil along with trellises and water. It’s been a little over a week and they are all thriving and growing.I’m looking forward to picking blackberries without bleeding to death.Highly recommend!

Bought in April 2022, this is the first full harvest, mainly due to getting cooked in the sun during a heatwave early in the fruiting process in summer of 2023 (in NorCal). They were unattended at the time, but this year I put shade cloth over them on scorching days and BOOM! Amazing. They like wet areas, so I increased their water this year as well. They really spread out and take up space.

I was surprised that these were so healthy and happy when I opened the box. I purchased 5 plants and all are thriving. This was an expensive purchase for me, but when it comes to these kinds of plants I know to buy more with the expectation of losing one or two. That isn't going to happen here. Only other plants that I have received this healthy right out of the box was my lemon tree from a rather expensive fast growing company. I highly recommend buying from this company. Now, if only it would rain enough to soften the ground enough to get a pick ax into it so I can get them out of the containers and into the ground the plants and I will be happy. In the interim, I am praying for rain in the Mid-west.

When our plants arrived, I noticed that one plant seemed extremely small and appeared to be in bad health compared to the other plants, but I took a chance and planted all five plants, all were planted at the same time, the same way and in the same soil, four plants are doing fine but the one plant that looked bad appears dead with no growth or signs of life.I contacted the company in hopes in "GOOD FAITH" they would send Another plant to replace the bad one that was sent and did not survive, instead they played the "Blame Game"They responded as follows, "The reason why they are struggling is because the stem and plug are too deep. If the stem is touching new soil, it will rotten the stem. Please raise the plug so it is sticking out of the soil about a cm.As I Said All 5 were planted the same way and In the Same Soil, I feel this company slipped in A small crappy plant along with good ones as the pictures show.

The blackberry plants that I received in the mail were squashed pretty badly and looked brown and mostly dead. I got five plants and two of them had have died. I did leave the plant in the ground however, just in case maybe it would revive. Two of the plants look pretty good but the third ones very tiny. We will see if it makes it after being squished in the mail.

Seem to be good, healthy plants just smaller than but I had out for. And I think for the size they were overpriced, that’s just my opinion.

Pretty impressed with these starter plants. Shipped in a timely manner, healthy green leaves and all 5 had nice healthy roots. I transplanted into 1 gallon pots for now and will plant out after I finish preparing the new growing area. I expect all of these to really take off in growth. The plants were about 3 inches tall, each with about a 2 inch wide 4 inch deep root system that was obviously grown in cells of that size. These should be easy to transplant with minimal shock even after being temporarily grown on in a larger pot for about a month or so.

Huge blackberries and no thorns to contend with. Makes a great cobbler or just freeze and pop them in your mouth for a snack. Need to know they produce on the second year but when they do, oh my … get ready. Enjoy!!!
