Two Blackberry Bushes for Cross Pollination

Question

Last year I planted one blackberry bush. This year we got three berries and that is all. Do I need to plant another blackberry bush for cross pollination?

Answer 1

While most blackberry bushes are self-fertile, a few cultivars work better when planted near another variety of blackberry.
