Prime Ark Freedom is the first thornless primocane fruiting blackberry in the world! A blackberry usually grows one year and doesn't fruit until the following season. Freedom fruits this way very early in the season, but then fruits again in the fall where the climate is suitable. Freedom also has exceptional extra large fruit size, good flavor and the plant grows upright and needs little or no staking. Zones 5-9, space 5' circle or 5' apart.
