It's this in you garden or natural? I kind of want to plant one in my garden this year? I know I'll have to trim and pull but and to know if it's worth it
Garden. They are pretty easy and straightforward, I’d recommend.
I got a thornless variety, which I guess helps.
We were thinking a thornless variety as well. We love them and they are native to our area so I think we will
If runners are a worry, you can always put them in a container!
I put mine in these "plantainers" that you can find at most big box stores, and they seem to like it: https://www.homedepot.com/p/MacCourt-20-Gal-Large-Plantainer-Preformed-Pond-Liner-PP2615/308771723. Drill holes, optionally paint white (if you live somewhere hot), add soil/fert/plant, and you're off to the races.
Make sure you know about the University of Arkansas cultivars before pulling the trigger though! They've got some pretty impressive varieties, including ones that produce fruit on first-year branches.
