Rubus spp. – Chester Blackberry
Chester is an early, fine-tasting, semi-erect, thornless blackberry variety. I recall sampling Chester when it was still a numbered seedling at the University of Maryland's Cherry Hill Research facility, and I enthusiastically promoted its flavor. This variety is hardier than many others, producing sweet and juicy fruits. However, like all blackberries, the fruits should remain on the plant until they detach easily from the calyx for optimal ripeness.

Growing Zones: 6–8
Plant Spacing: 5–6 feet apart in beds 5 feet wide
