none of the places I can find here on the Mississippi GulfCoast are
selling them anymore... who would be a good place to buy from?

I live on the Louisiana Gulf coast and am growing Triple Crown thornless
blackberries. Got them from Stark Brothers Nursery in Louisiana, MO.
Should have a web presence but haven't looked lately. Planted six of
them in January and they are producing berries, albeit not many, this
month and are growing well.
