The Best Companion Plants for Blackberries..
Give your blackberry plants the best "friends" to
keep them healthy.
While tidy rows of
blackberry bushes offer the simplest harvesting opportunities for
self-sufficient gardeners, you may prefer to "mix it up" by growing
blackberries under a canopy of complementary trees, as well as mingling them
with other food-bearing shrubs. It's also helpful to use herbs and flowers that
help maintain shrub health. Blackberries thrive in a number of climates and
soil conditions, although they dislike boggy or nitrogen-depleted soil. They
can even tolerate part shade, although the shrubs won't produce quite as much
fruit as those planted in the sunniest spots.
