When compared to average berries from the store, Taste of Heaven™ Blackberry brings this long-time favorite fruit to new heights. The berries of this thornless shrub are consistently sweet with just enough tang, and a rich full flavor that is a joy to eat! These blackberries are wonderful plain and fresh from the garden, as well as an excellent addition to pies, jams, and beverages– anywhere you want a delectable berry taste! Thanks to its sturdy canes and smaller size, Taste of Heaven can be grown without a trellis, and in more places than other varieties. This floricane blackberry (fruits on the second year canes) performs best and produces the highest yield in full sun, but will still produce fruit even in the shade– something uncommon for fruit plants!
