According to Joe Fitzgerald, who started the first Erath County nursery in 1900, blackberries grew everywhere in the county. Fitzgerald noticed a variety growing near his home by Mickey schoolhouse that produced up to five gallons of berries per plant, had fewer thorns, fewer seeds, and was self pollinating. He collected and propagated the plant and sold it all over the world under the name Early Wonder. The best time to plant blackberries is February. Their natural habitat is near post oak trees in sandy soil where composted oak leaves acidify the soil to their preference.
