Big Daddy™ makes a lot of large, flavorful berries on floricanes. The berries are impressive with their long shape and the yield of the plants can be outstanding. The plants are very healthy and produce erect, thornless canes. The berries ripen -about days after the first ripe floricane berries on Prime-Ark® 'Freedom'. Big Daddy can fruit for up to days. If Big Daddy™ and Prime-Ark® 'Freedom' are planted together homeowners can have a very long season of large, superb tasting blackberries!
