Description

The listing, 12 Seeds - Organically Grown Blackberry Bushes has ended.

You are bidding on 12 seeds of my Organically Grown Blackberry Seeds.

***I grow the same seed I sell, so I know just how great these are!

MY SEEDS ARE HEIRLOOM, NON-GMO, Open pollinated, hand harvested and hand sorted!!!

1) Much like spinach, raisins, apples, plums and grapes, blackberries are rich in bioflavonoids and Vitamin C, but other nutritional benefits include a very low sodium count and having only 62 calories to a cup.
2) The dark blue color ensures blackberries have one of the highest antioxidant levels of all fruits. Antioxidants, well-known for lowering the risk of a number of cancers, are a huge bonus, but be aware the berries are best consumed in their natural state to get the full benefits.
3) The berries are known by a variety of names, which include brambleberries, bramble, dewberry, thimbleberry and lawers.
4) Consumption of blackberries can help to promote the healthy tightening of tissue, which is a great non-surgical procedure to make skin look younger. Prolonged consumption also helps keeps your brain alert, thereby maintaining clarity of thought and good memory.
5) The high tannin content of blackberries provides a number of benefits to reduce intestinal inflammation, alleviate hemorrhoids and soothe the effects of diarrhea. It is important to incorporate berries in your diet in a variety of ways. Have them as a snack or in your cereal or even as a smoothie.
6) Traditionally, the leaves and barks of the plant have also been consumed. The leaves of blackberries have been used to treat mild inflammation of the gums and sometimes even sore throats.
7) The astringent tannins are effective in oral hygiene when used as a gargle or mouthwash.

And lets not forget, They taste Great!!

Seeds will ship via USPS usually within 24 hours of the end of the auction and my receipt of your Listia approved address.

I'm new to growing things, what's the best way to grow these and when?

It depends on where you are located. I grow mine directly in the ground in partial sun, I am in Central Texas. Friends in both the north east and the north west U.S. grow them in the ground in full sun.
