Boasting extra–fertile white flowers which result in more perfectly formed berries, these jumbo–size fruits have jumbo–size flavor and exceptionally small seeds! Tall, thornless canes stand erect with new canes coming up from the roots to increase productivity. These sweet, blackberries ripen in June and grow best in full sun and loamy, well–drained soil. Self–pollinating. Rubus fruticosus 'Apache' PP11865
