Developed as a perennial fruiting shrub, it performs well in home orchards and edible landscapes, offering an easy-to-manage option for growers who prefer a thornless caneberry.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe berries are ideal for fresh eating, pies, jams, cobblers, and freezing, holding their shape well after harvest. Plants produce primocanes and floricanes, with fruit forming on second-year canes; a season of establishment allows the root system to develop before full production begins. With routine pruning and a sunny site, Osage delivers reliable summer harvests.\u003cbr\u003e\nSpecies: Rubus hybrid\u003cbr\u003e\nType: Thornless blackberry\u003cbr\u003e\nPlant_Habit: Upright, erect canes\u003cbr\u003e\nSun: Full sun\u003cbr\u003e\nSoil: Well-drained, slightly acidic loam\u003cbr\u003e\nDays_to_Harvest: Fruit on second-year canes\u003cbr\u003e\nZones: 5-9\u003cbr\u003e\nGermination: Not applicable\u003cbr\u003e\nSowing: Not applicable\u003cbr\u003e\nSpacing: 4-6 feet between plants\u003cbr\u003e\nNotes: Water regularly during establishment; prune spent floricanes after harvest\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67664037478536,"sku":"BTR-094","price":34.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0717\/4648\/6408\/files\/download_63bde97d-9c26-47b9-8780-7ee55f9ee4e0.png?v=1791897363","url":"https:\/\/www.natesgardensupply.com\/products\/1-live-plant-osage-blackberry-thornless-rubus-hybrid-starter-plug","provider":"Nate's Garden Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
