Prime ark freed is under patent. Don’t know about ouachita but that is a typical Floricane variety

So what's the patent royalty for a cutting? I could send it to the University of Arkansas Dept of Agriculture if someone would send me some cuttings.

Why not wait till fall to order? You’ll really have to baby any plants you get now being mid July, especially in hot and dry so cal

mxk3, thanks for letting me know...I hadn't tried Stark Bros yet. Could you tell me what size the plants were that you received?

^^ Cell pack size.

I saw that on their web site, but don't have a clue about what a "cell pack" is. Googling it only produces information about batteries. Could you tell me the size (in inches) of the container (cell??) that each blackberry plant came in.

These are 3.5" x 3.5" x 3.5". They are *small*. They look healthy, though. Can't find them locally, so will just have to patient as they grow on...
