## Description

The Navajo Blackberry is a popular variety. It is extremely productive and self-fertile. It will produce a large crop of sweet, firm blackberries on thornless erect canes. Navajo Blackberry Plants are free-standing, requiring no support or trellising which makes them perfect for a hedge row. Navajo Blackberry Plants establish themselves quickly into the environment, and can tolerate both heat and cold.

## More information

Navajo blackberries produce their fruit exclusively on the one-year-old canes (floricanes) that grew during the previous season. They feature an erect, up-right growth habit and are highly prized for their exceptional sweetness and easy-to-manage canes. They require 6–8 hours of full sun and well-draining, slightly acidic soil. The perfect plant for backyard gardens and hedge rows.
