Curated by Kevin Bruce, expert horticulturalist, this kit gives you everything you need to grow fresh homegrown blackberry from seed. Perfect for kitchen gardens, apartment balconies, classrooms, and anyone who wants to know exactly where their food comes from.
Rated Difficulty Level 2-3 (Intermediate) — best suited for growers comfortable with multi-step processes like stratification or transplanting. Germination typically occurs in 30-90 days under proper conditions. Plants can reach 3-8 feet at maturity and thrive in full sun (6-8 hours daily).
Note from Kevin Bruce, Horticulturalist: Rubus fruticosus seeds require cold stratification (a period of cold-moist treatment that mimics winter) to break dormancy before germination. Full stratification instructions are included in your kit.
