Armenian Blackberry
Rubus armeniacus
shrub☀️ full sun💧💧 moderate waterZone 5a – Zone 10b
A vigorous, thorny blackberry shrub producing dark purple berries in summer. Highly invasive in many regions but valued for its prolific fruit production.
Few named cultivars exist; most commercial plantings use the species directly. 'Oregon Thornless' and similar thornless selections are sometimes available but are less common than the wild thorny form.
