Identifying and Removing Blackberries from the Garden | PNW Zone 8b
Hi friends, in this video I discuss the 2 basic types of blackberries that we see in the PNW as well of ways to control them. Towards the end of video I show the digging of a blackberry crown (this part is actually pretty funny because I kept getting tangled up in the vines).
If you are not from the PNW, you may not understand what a nuisance blackberries can be, but believe me they are. I have all three types of blackberries (native trailing, evergreen and Himalayan) in my garden and the Himalayan ones are the harder ones to eradicate. Blackberries have a large crown that either needs to be dug, or starved of energy by consistent, and repetitive mowing.
I was outside working in my own garden digging the blackberries and I thought this would be a useful topic so I hope you enjoy the video (and that it is helpful).
Thanks for Watching and Happy Gardening!
