J'ai acquis 3 pieds en automne 2017 que j'ai déplacés un an plus tard. Cela ne les pas empêché de continuer leur vie. J'attends avec envie la prochaine production de baies.

Description
The Black Satin Blackberry is a very productive and vigorous variety of thornless fruiting bramble. It produces large elongated blackberries, soft, shiny, tasty and juicy, slightly acidic. It is a self-fertile variety, which yields an abundant harvest from late July to October. The fruits are great for making jams, jellies or pies. It should be planted in ordinary soil, not too dry to moist, in full sun or partial shade.
The Black Satin garden blackberry belongs to the Rosaceae family. It is a perennial climbing vine-plant, reaching maturity in two years, with branches that can grow up to 3 to 5 meters (10 to 16 feet) in length, and a stump that can occupy 0.5 to 1 meter (2 to 3 feet) of soil. The foliage is deciduous, dark green, composed of compound, deeply toothed leaves with visible veins, very similar to wild blackberry leaves. The stems are smooth, living only to bear fruit (2 years) and are gradually replaced by shoots originating from the stump. The flowering, abundant and honey-producing, displays numerous small pale pink flowers measuring 1.5 cm (1in) in diameter, grouped in clusters. It occurs early, in May. The fruits are formed of drupes clustered on the receptacle. They are large-sized, shiny black when ripe, from late July. They should be harvested when fully black, as they are then both sweet and tangy, juicy and tasty. The fruits can be consumed fresh right after picking, frozen, used in pies or made into jam.
The Thornless Black Satin Blackberry is a plant with very long flexible branches that must be trellised (with a wire mesh, fence, or trellis). Hardy and easy to grow, it thrives in ordinary soil, although it prefers fertile, well-drained and moist soil. It will do well against a sunny or partially shaded wall, showcasing the bare wood of the flexible branches in winter. Thornless blackberries are hybrids derived from the Thornless Common Bramble, Rubus var. inermis, itself obtained through the cross-breeding of blackberry and raspberry. Extensive improvement and selection work has led to the development of numerous particularly productive thornless varieties, most of which are of American origin.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
