A guide to choosing the right size

Blackmoor Nursery is one of very few Nurseries in the UK offering gardeners the opportunity to buy Sunberry plants direct from our Nursery. 

All orders are despatched in one delivery. If your order contains both bare root and container grown plants then we can only despatch when all plants are ready. 

3 Litre = Container grown and can be planted all year round. The size refers to the number of litres of compost that the container holds.

Plant 6–10 feet apart (1.8–3 m). These plants should also not be set too deeply and after planting bare root canes should be cut back to 9” (23 cm).

The young shoots arising from the base of the plant are tied in as they grow and then the old 9” stub can be removed.

Subsequently pruning is similar to raspberries, canes that have fruited are cut out immediately after fruiting.

situation

Sunberry plants do best in a well-drained, fertile, loam soil with moderate water holding capacity. Avoid heavy clay soils. Sometimes you can improve a less desirable site by tiling, increasing organic matter content and building raised beds.

Extremely pleased with the sturdy healthy looking plant, no signs of any root or leaf damage. Main stem measured 2ft + with two strong shoots just arising from base. Packaging and delivery extremely good. Recommended

Small plant but looks strong. Time will tell!

Nice healthy looking plant.

26 Sep 13 | Andrew

Quite thorny, looking and growing like a bramble and a bit slow to establish. Fruits are larger than any cultivated blackberry and although they could be described as having loganberry flavour they are much sweeter, mine were of no use for pies or jam as they got eaten long before they reached the kitchen
