Cheyenne produces a firm berry that is excellent for jellies, jams, and freezing. This winter-hardy variety is ideal for the North and Midwest. Blackberry ‘Cheyenne’ is a dormant plant selected by DeGroot, offering you the opportunity to get a head start to the season! Due to its dormant state, this plant may lack foliage until it is planted. There is no need to wait until after frost; this may be planted as soon as the ground is workable. This early planting prevents transplant shock and allows more time to develop its root system. If your plant does have foliage, protect it from frost. Depending on the climate and weather experienced after planting, this plant could take up to 4-6 weeks to break dormancy and show signs of growth.
1. Dig a hole large enough to encompass the roots without bending or circling. 2. Set the plant in place so the crown (part of the plant where the root meets the stem) is level with the soil surface. 3. Water thoroughly. Fertilize at the time of planting and again in late spring.
