Default Blackberry question
In article . com,
says...
I have in the yard of my new house a plant that I've been told might be
a black berry bush, fast growing thorny vines and plain green leaves.
But there are no berries. If it is such a plant, is there something I
can or should do to help it sprout berries? It's been 5 months now, and
of course the season is probably over now, but I'm wondering why there
were no berries all summer. Could it be something else?


The next years berries will develop on this years growth. Flowering in
the Spring ripening around Mother's Day. After fruit time next year,
lightly prune then feed it to stimulate new plant growth.
