This Rubus selection offers an ornamental and productive addition to home gardens, producing flavorful fruit on canes that can be trained along trellises or left to sprawl. Ideal for growers seeking a unique berry variety with visual appeal and reliable yields in suitable climates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe berries are well suited for fresh eating, jams, jellies, and baked desserts, offering a sweet-tart flavor when fully ripe. Plants perform best in full sun with well-drained, slightly acidic soil and benefit from consistent moisture during establishment. Canes are biennial, fruiting on second-year wood, so pruning spent canes after harvest encourages new growth. Space plants to allow good airflow, and provide support for the trailing habit.\u003cbr\u003e\nSpecies: Rubus hybrid\u003cbr\u003e\nVariety: Galaxy\u003cbr\u003e\nType: Perennial fruiting shrub\u003cbr\u003e\nPlant_Habit: Trailing, vigorous\u003cbr\u003e\nSun: Full sun to partial shade\u003cbr\u003e\nSoil: Well-drained, slightly acidic\u003cbr\u003e\nDays_to_Harvest: Not applicable\u003cbr\u003e\nZones: 5-9\u003cbr\u003e\nGermination: Not applicable\u003cbr\u003e\nSowing: Not applicable\u003cbr\u003e\nSpacing: 4-6 feet apart\u003cbr\u003e\nNotes: Fruiting occurs on second-year canes; prune spent canes after harvest\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67664694411400,"sku":"BTR-331","price":75.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0717\/4648\/6408\/files\/download_c11ef9f7-51ae-4c95-9723-83024f741c9d.png?v=1791897681","url":"https:\/\/www.natesgardensupply.com\/products\/5-live-plant-galaxy-blackberry-rubus-starter-plug","provider":"Nate's Garden Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
