Try getting the June issue of South Living magazine. It had a great article
about blackberries.

we visited some friends yesterday near Memphis Tn and came home with
about two gallons of blackberries and some blackberry roots. I would
like to hear from one and all about the care and feeding of
blackberries. How do they propagate? Do we need to cut back the canes
once they bear fruit? or when are the canes cut back? Any advise,URL's,
or warnings would be appreciated.
