Blackberry Bushes

Question

Can you transfer a blackberry bush? It’s on a fence with about half shade that seems to be growing ok, but I’m a big fan of them and I want them to grow bigger and produce more. So can I move them into full sun without them dying?

Answer 1

Yes, you can move them and they do fine in full sun. Spring is the very best time to move them, followed closely by early fall.
