I just received my order from Nourse Farms! I got 5 Anne (bare root) reaspberry plants and 5 Triple Crown (nursery matured) blackberry plants. I have done of research online about planting and care of these brambles and will list some of the more interesting facts here.Triple Crown: ripens July-August and is named for its three crowning attributes—flavor, productivity and vigor. It is semi-erect and thornless.
Anne: ripens August-October and is named for its creator's wife; a thirty-year old promise that came to fruition in 1998. It's an everbearing bramble
Hints:
- summer-bearing brambles: train the flowering canes along the wires and encourage diagonal growth. Then the primal canes should have plenty of room and sunlight to grow vertically between the two wires.
- Blackberries grow taller than raspberries and need to be trained upwards
