a revolution in Blackberries
What makes Prime-Jan®, Prime-Jim® and Prime-Ark® 45 blackberries so
different, so revolutionary? Other varieties bear on canes produced the prior
year. But these innovative varieties bear on both last year’s AND this year’s canes. That
means northern gardeners can harvest good crops of sweet, flavor-filled berries even
if severe winter temperatures damage prior years’canes. Another plus: New, first-year
canes begin ripening in mid-July and continue to fruit until frost! Second-year canes
bear their heaviest crops in mid-June. And you get all this production on one plant!

The stark advantage: grafted trees
Grafting is the process of taking a single“parent”tree known for its
fruit taste, size, bloom period and ripening time, and propagating
more true-to-name trees from this one parent. Most of our trees
here at Stark Bro’s are grafted for this consistency. Seed-grown
trees, in comparison, have two parents—which can produce varia-
tions from tree to tree. With grafted trees, you get exactly what
you pay for, guaranteed!

stark® ez start® system
Some fruit and nut varieties are difficult
to transplant from us to you, due to
their critical but delicate feeder roots. For such
varieties, we use our registered air-pruning
pots known as our Stark® EZ Start® system.
These containers are bottomless, which allows
the trees to grow massive amounts of strong
feeder roots-- offering you an exceptional start
to growing our grafted nuts, persimmons and
pawpaws. The award-winning Stark® EZ Start®
system results in 1-3 ft. tall trees with strong root
balls, resulting in virtually no transplant shock
and greater growing success. We also extend
this innovation to our 2-N-1 fruit trees, which are
grown in our 3.5 acre greenhouse facility under
optimal conditions for bud take and growth.
Throughout our catalog, look for this
symbol, which identifies all of our pot-grown
varieties (including Stark® EZ Start® system
products).

GRAFTED NUT TREES
Grafting is the process of taking a single“par-
ent”tree known for its fruit taste, size, bloom
period and ripening time, and propagating
more true-to-name trees from this one parent.
Most of our trees here at Stark Bro’s are grafted
for this consistency. Seed-grown trees, have
two parents—which can produce variations
from tree to tree.With grafted trees, you get
exactly what you pay for, guaranteed!

Pollination Advice
Cross-pollination by a different variety
is key to the success of many fruit trees.
In most cases, its absence is why trees
produce poorly or don’t bear fruit.
The experts at Stark Bro’s have years
of experience growing the trees in
this catalog, and they have included
pollinator recommendations in many of
the variety descriptions.
