Mijn meer dan 40 jaar ervaring met tuinieren en het telen van vele
soorten (klein)fruit zonder scheikundige bemesting en - spuiten wil ik
meedelen en zelf nog bijleren.

Met het slechte weer heb ik wat opgezocht. Ik kwam ook op http://fruitforum.wordpress.com
RE: Blackberries
I live in
the Sandy part of Flanders, De Kempen, 20 km from Antwerp.
In 1992 I bought
Loch Ness and Waldo from Derrek Jennings and a few years later his Adrienne and
Helen. The latter is the best of these two. Now I am curious about the winter
damage.
Half of the
90's I became Fantasia, with the prickles,
but no problem, the lots of very big and tasty berries hang free. They ripen
here from half August.
Yesterday
with the good wetter I have been cutting the old branches to the ground in small
parts that simply will compost on the ground. With glows this is also not a
problem.
Fantasia is
the biggest wild Blackberry I know. They remember me on the big blackberries of
my childhood in West Flanders.
