Sweetie Pie Blackberry (Rubus x ‘Sweetie Pie’) comes highly recommended by our fruiting plant experts. This is a special USDA selection that produces an abundance of juicy blackberries.
Blessed with a high natural sugar content, Sweetie Pie Blackberry is extremely versatile. Juice them, enjoy them in a bowl of steel-cut oatmeal with a splash of locally-sourced cream or prep many, many bags for freezing.
You’ll appreciate having the taste of summer when the winter days get dreary. There is nothing quite as satisfying as growing your own food.
Sweetie Pie even behaves nicely. No thorns on the trailing canes make harvest an “ouch-free” experience.
Plant these disease-resistant thornless Blackberry plants in sun-soaked rows on a sturdy trellis. Space them five feet apart, and keep the rows five feet apart, too.
You’ll be pleased how pretty this looks in your landscape with white, double blossoms and that lovely fruit display from green to red to luscious black! Why not consider it a useful privacy screen to get double duty from your investment?
Sweetie Pie Blackberry bears fruit with an outstanding flavor on last year’s wood. After those floricanes fruit, you’ll cut them out at ground level and place them in the yard waste.
