good experienceplanted 3 small 2-3" plants. Western Maryland. Each had two-three green leaves. I now have 3 large plants with multiple vines (canes) over 5 feet long. No joke! Perhaps because of very rainy spring and summer, aged manure fertilizer. Will see how they fruit next year

Doing goodI bought the live plant this spring, came about two inches tall. Planted it with stakes around it so the dogs don't stomp on it and have been watering it probably twice a week now that it's summer and it is about six inches tall and looks healthy now.

Mine never took off...I received the bareroot and planted it by the instructions; I kept it watered, but it never showed signs of life.

Time will tellMarionberry arrived bareroot along with an order of strawberries, raspberries, and a bareroot gooseberry. Everything looked wonderful and heathly except for the Marionberry. The Marionberry arrived as a small twig that appeared dead on the end and buds were not visible. The roots were packed in sawdust and unfortunately had dried out during transit. When scratched, there was still a bit of yellow-green at the bottom of the plant so I went ahead and planted it after giving the roots a good soak. Overall, I expected a better specimen, especially since I only ordered one, but maybe I'll get lucky and the plant will surprise me. It has happened before!
