Pick sweet, juicy blackberries with ease from completely thornless canes.
Enjoy a long harvest season, with fruit appearing from mid-summer right through to September.
Lush green, serrated leaves provide summer interest before turning to vibrant autumn colours.
A compact and tidy habit makes 'Tiny Black' perfect for pots on patios, balconies, or in small gardens.
Delicious eaten fresh from the plant, the berries also freeze well for year-round crumbles, pies, and jams.
An RHS 'Plants for Pollinators' variety, it attracts bees and butterflies, while providing food and shelter for birds.

Species: Blackberry
Features: Perfect for pollinators, Fully hardy, Self fertile, Colourful berries & fruits
Flowering Time: April, May, June
Harvest Time: July, August, September
Flowers: Dainty white, five-petal flowers bloom in spring and early summer
Position: Full sun to partial shade
Soil: Any moist, well-drained soil
Hardiness: Fully hardy. This tough cookie will withstand even severe British winters.
Habit: Forms a nice, compact bush on short canes (compared with other blackberry varieties).
Eventual Spread: Spreads approximately 40-60cm.
Pest & Disease Resistance: Rarely affected by pests or disease, your biggest challenge with this blackberry variety will be keeping the birds from nabbing your delicious produce! Using netting can help with this, just make sure you choose a material that won't risk trapping the animals.
Tasting Notes: Wonderfully complex flavour profile, combining both sweet and sour.
Uses: Jams, pies and delectable trifles.

Planting Time: Can be planted at any time of year.
Spacing: Plant 60-80cm apart to allow for spreading.
Soil Preparation: Blackberry plants like 'Tiny Black' grow best in moist soil with good drainage. Amend your soil with some organic matter if it drains poorly currently.
Watering: As your blackberry establishes itself during the first year, it will appreciate regular watering, especially when the weather is hot and dry. After that, however, additional watering will only be needed in prolonged dry spells.
Feeding: Blackberry plants benefit from a springtime application of high-potassium fertiliser.
Pruning: Every year, cut back the canes which have fruited right the way to their base, leaving the newer stems that haven't yet produced fruit. This is best done in late winter.
