Rosborough Blackberries


We planted Rosborough and Brazos varieties of blackberries at the farm last year from root stock. This is our first real crop in their second year. Year three is when we should see substantial production. I plan to add several rows of them now that we have the experience under our belts. The Rosborough's are very large sweet (shown in photo) berries. They are a thorned variety, trust me in this fact:-) They are capable of producing 5,000 to 8,000 lbs per acre. That is a lot of berries, and even more thorns!
