Thanks for clearing up the pollination thing. What is the spacing for the Kiowa and does it really not need a trellis?
Karl

The standard commercial spacing of thorny erect (Kiowa/Chickasaw/Choctaw/Shawnee) is 2x10 or 2x12, thornless erect (Navaho/Ouachita/Apache/Natchez/Arapaha) is 3x10 or 3x12, and thornless semi-erect (triple crown/chester) is 6x12. You can grow Kiowa without a trellis although most farms grow all there blackberries on a trellis.

GEES, I have picked blackberries along fence lines and ditch banks for years, so shame on you guys for getting me interested in yet another thing to plant Wink David if your source does not pan out for you PM me, because I plan to order a few Kiowa from Pense Nursery. Since you are not far from me we could share an order. Mr. Bonnie recommended this nursery so thatÂ’s as good as gold to me.
