ℹ Loch Ness Blackberry is a vigorous, thornless variety prized for its exceptionally large, glossy black berries and dependable, high yields. The fruit is firm, juicy, and well balanced with a sweet tart flavor that holds up beautifully for fresh eating, baking, preserves, and freezing. Plants produce long, semi erect canes that are easier to manage than trailing types and benefit from light support to keep growth tidy and fruit clean. Ripening mid to late season, Loch Ness is known for consistent, heavy crops once established, often producing impressive harvests year after year. The thornless canes make picking and pruning far more enjoyable, while the plant’s strong vigor and adaptability allow it to perform well in full sun with regular moisture and average garden soil. Loch Ness is an excellent choice for gardeners looking for big berries, easy care, and reliable productivity in a thornless blackberry
