Hello Lindaofaustin,  

Here are the results of my research for sources to purchase Triple
Crown thornless blackberry  plants.

“Triple Crown is the newest thornless blackberry from the Agricultural
Research Service's Fruit Laboratory, Beltsville, Md. The berry gets
its name from three crowning attributes–flavor, productivity and
vigor. It ripens from about mid-July to about mid-August.”

“Two West coast nurseries, Sakuma Brothers Farms, Inc., 
Burlington Wash., and Cedar Valley Nursery, Inc., Centralia, Wash.,
intend to offer Triple Crown plants for sale for the first time this
summer (1998). Indiana Berry & Plant Co., Huntingburg, Ind., plans to
sell Triple Crown this fall. In 1999, Nourse Farms, Inc., South
Deerfield, Mass., and Weeks Berry Nursery, Keizer, Ore., expect to
have a supply of the new blackberry.”

sweetness and tartness. Hardiness is comparable to that of Chester.
Plant Triple Crown as an earlier ripening complement to Chester and
extend your blackberry season. Pkg of 3. Can’t ship to CA.

Triple Crown Thornless Blackberry Triple Crown blackberries are one of
the newer thornless blackberry introductions and a real credit to the
hybridizers. The sturdy vines are less erect than Navaho, requiring
more support when they are young - especially when the summer harvest
of huge blackberries appears! Triple Crown plants have the capacity to
produce larger berries than any other variety we have seen, so be
prepared to fertilize them well if you'd like to have award-winning
blackberries. Wonderful sweet flavor and a thrill for kids to pick.

We will start taking Spring 2004 orders in November. Shipping dates
for your plants will depend on your location. Southern zones ship
first and we move north and central with the warming weather, shipping
into late May and early June.

Weeks Berry Nursery is a wholesale only company.

Triple Crown: 

Triple crown is a joint release from USDA-Beltsville and the Pacific
West Agricultural Research Service. The plant is semi-erect, thornless
and bears large, flavorful fruit. Early trials indicate that it may
ripen earlier than Chester, but after Lockness on or about August 1st
and is similar to Chester in winter hardiness. Triple Crown would be a
good choice to help extend the blackberry season for home gardeners,
U-pick, and farm stands. Zone 5-7.
