The first of a new generation of large-fruited, sweet blackberry varieties to be made available to the grower – exclusively by us!
Whilst big, sweet blackberries dominate the supermarket shelves, they are the monopoly of a few commercial growers and not available to the home gardener – until that is, our trailblazing Blackberry 'Loch Katrine'. Blackberry 'Loch Katrine' offers super-large berries weighing up to 9 grams each – double the size of most other garden varieties.
These lovely, sweet berries have a superb blackberry flavour, coming top in blind tasting trials at the James Hutton Institute where it was bred. The berries have a unique sugar to acid balance which delivers their special sweet taste.
'Loch Katrine' produces very high yields – up to 4kg for a single plant – amounting to over £30 worth of berries if you were to purchase them from a supermarket. This vigorous variety is also free from thorns making it easy to train and a pleasure to harvest.
Bred in Scotland by James Hutton’s breeder, Nikki Jennings, 'Loch Katrine' is the first new blackberry to be released by the Institute since 2006 and sets a new standard for the gardener.
Height: 2m (6ft). Spread: 2.5m (8ft).
Estimated time to cropping once planted: 16-20 months.
Estimated time to best yields: 28-32 months.
