Triple Crown Thornless Blackberry is a sturdy erect variety of the deciduous shrub that produces very heavy yields of extra-large fruits and does not requires staking. The pink-white rose-like flowers give way to clusters of fruits in which ripen in summer. Fruits best in full sun and rich, moist, slightly acidic well-drained soils. Triple Crown is self-fruiting and has wind resistance, but is intolerant of wet soils.
