3 Prime-Ark Traveler Blackberry Plants – Rubus Starter Plugs | Thornless Everbearing Variety | Sweet Firm Berries | Bare Root Berry Plants | Easy Garden Fruit

Grow delicious berries at home with this set of 3 Prime-Ark Traveler Blackberry plants (Rubus ‘Prime-Ark Traveler’). Developed by the University of Arkansas, this popular variety is known for producing sweet, firm, medium-to-large berries with lower acidity, making them perfect for fresh eating, baking, and preserves.

Prime-Ark Traveler is a thornless primocane-fruiting (everbearing) blackberry, meaning it can produce fruit on first-year canes, allowing for earlier and extended harvests. Its upright growth habit makes it easier to manage than many traditional blackberry varieties, while still producing reliable yields once established.

These plants typically reach 4–6 feet in height and benefit from a trellis or support system to help manage heavy fruit production. They are a great choice for home gardens, berry patches, raised beds, or container growing.
