Baby them at first!
I potted mine up immediately (no need to disturb root ball) into 4" pots and put them under grow lights for a week before moving them into a sheltered area outside. I also noticed that there were actually 2 plants in a couple of my pots. I strongly recommend taking scissors and carefully cutting off the smaller of two if you get 2 in a pot. The ones that were one to a pot were doing significantly better than the ones with 2 plants. I do not recommend trying to separate if you happen to get 2 in one pot. I tried to and found that I could not do so without risking very significant or fatal damage to one or both of the ones I tried to separate.PrimeArk Freedom is supposed to be a very good variety and I am excited to still have four very healthy and thriving plants 2 weeks after receipt.A few years ago I ordered a couple of blackberry plants from a different seller in a similar tiny pot and after potting them up into 4 inch pots, I immediately put them outside where they got morning sun and they died soon after.I also have given mine a diluted transplant fertilizer each week.So far, I could not be happier! I received them May 2, growing zone 7. They were well packaged and not dried out.June 3, 2024 update--plants are doing great. I am moving them into 1 gallon pots. I am sure they will continue to do well.March 29, 2025 updateThey are growing roots out the bottom of the 1 gallon container. I meant to have them in the ground by now, but will have to put them in 3 gallon containers for now. Made it through winter, unprotected in 1 gallon pots, new growth looks healthy. Not sure when to expect berries.I highly recommend the starter plants if you are on a budget. Yes, they are small, but I was impressed with how quickly they grew.

Quality Stock
I want potential customers to know that I have bought many plants from ‘Fam Plants’ and despite some negative customer reviews, I will say that is Not my experience. I have Always received very healthy ‘plugs’ that turn into robust adult plants.I receive them quickly and Professionally packaged.I am 100% satisfied with this family company and will continue to order from them as needed.FYI - I am a 60yr old lifetime gardener with extensive gardens in AZ. I successfully grow many fruit plants and tree varieties and I personally vouch for the quality of plants they sell. I highly recommend them.(Pics show blackberry plugs transferred into 4”pots)

Small and whithered - not worth the money
The plants were not what I expected at all. They should have labelled them correctly as starts, not plants. I was expecting a larger plant, not a small whithered start. They had fairly good instructions included but we're dying when the were delivered and advertising was deceptive. Definintely not worth almost $30.

50% survival rate
Two of four are still alive, they were put in a row with our established bushes and irrigation. Disappointed in the result, I had high hopes for these.

They start small, need some time & care to get going
I got 4 of the Freedom plants. Yes they came in very tiny but they were healthy. I put them all together in a 12" pot to get a little bigger before transplanting. During this time my dog ate one of them.When they got too big for that pot I planted them in the ground about 1-2 months ago. My 3 survivors are doing great. I'm including a bad picture here bc I missed the top of the tallest plant, but that plant is 18-24" tall now. Thick brown stems. There are 3 plants in that picture. No berries but I didn't expect any this first year. I recieved the plants in May, 4-5 months ago.Maybe by winter they will have grown up to 4-5 feet, and they still might. Then if they survive my MT winter, they should be doing fantastic next year.FYI I also planted 6 Prime-Ark Horizon plants that I got from Burpees and they are doing even better. The tallest of those is 3-4 feet tall and almost all of them are fruiting. I've had to put up an actual trellis for the Horizon, where the Freedom just has a couple stakes. Horizon is semi thornless so they do have some thorns but they may be fantastic producers. It may be a great combo, Freedom and Horizon!ALL my blackberries are on a drip irrigation setup to make sure they get water 2-3 times per week. They need it.

Beautiful seedlings!
Seedlings arrived healthy, green and beautiful but the day after I planted, my puppy dug them up, so I can't speak to their growth. I did reorder these same plants from this seller as I was very impressed. Pupper is now on a leash until I can fence my garden LOL. 👍
