The Bramble Patch

Today we set up the bramble patch!  We have 3 blackberry, 3 raspberry and 3 blueberry bushes in the front yard now.  Additional materials are needed to get the trellises made for the blackberry plants on the right. 

The trellises are spaced 20 ft apart.  There is about 8 ft. spacing between  the rows.

Here are the varieties growing in the bramble patch starting closest to our house:
Raspberries on the left.  Cumberland, Coho, Cumberland.
Blueberries in the center. Biloxi, Palmetto, Sunshine.
Blackberries on the right. Apache, Prime-Jan, Apache.

It would be nice to grow just one variety for consistency but multiple varieties encourage better yields due to cross-pollination.

We used an orbit drip system.  This is very efficient for watering the plants without watering the general vicinity.
