You’ll enjoy easy maintenance and harvesting from these upright, thornless blackberry plants. The erect, thornless canes makes the Ouachita a favorite for edible landscaping in more suburban and urban spaces, as well as a great choice for homesteads and u-pick farms.

The Ouachita thornless blackberries bear high yields of medium-size fruit with excellent eating quality. Enjoy them fresh, frozen, or baked into pies!

With relatively low maintenance, this variety is disease-resistant to rosette disease. This blackberry plant is heat-tolerant, and grows well in the south. This variety has also been successfully grown in many U.S. regions, such as in western, mid-western, and north-eastern states.

It is a summer-bearing floricane, with fruit ripening mid-season in June, before Navaho blackberries. Fruiting extends for about 5 weeks! Ouachita is self-pollinating and easy to grow. Your family will enjoy having homegrown fruit for years to come!

This is an award-winning sweet, thornless blackberry bred by the University of Arkansas.
