Triple Crown Blackberry Bush Care  

Triple Crown Blackberry Bush canes can be planted from late fall through early spring. Choose a location with full sun or partial shade. Space plants 5-6 feet apart and provide an adequate trellis support at the time of planting to help the stems support the heavy fruit load from July to August. Plants prefer loamy, well-drained soil with a pH of 6-6.8 Triple Crown Blackberry Bush plants are self-pollinating and require 300-450 chill hours below 45 degrees Fahrenheit to set fruit. Prune or top new canes when they reach 5-6 feet high and keep side shoots at 3-4 feet wide. Remove old fruiting canes after harvest. Triple Crown Blackberry Bush is disease resistant and heat tolerant. 

Growing Triple Crown Blackberry Bush

Triple Crown Blackberry Bush will reach 4-5 feet in height and spread 3-4 feet. The plant is hardy from zone 5-9. Triple Crown Blackberry Bush should not be grown indoors. 

Triple Crown Blackberry Bush grows well in a container. Use a large container that is about 5 gallons or larger. Select a container size that provides at least 6 inches of additional space around the base for root spread. Provide a trellis to support Triple Crown Blackberry Bush’s upright and trailing habit through the season. Place the potted Triple Crown Blackberry Bush in a location that gets 5-6 hours of sunlight a day. 

Watering Triple Crown Blackberry Bush 

Water Triple Crown Blackberry Bush regularly during the drier part of the summer. Check the soil moisture by inserting your finger into the top inch of soil, and water thoroughly when dry. 

Feeding Triple Crown Blackberry Bush
