Blackberry bonus

I noticed my blackberry I planted this spring was touching the ground. I was going to thread it through the fence, but the end was in the wood chips has roots growing on it.  I gently covered it back up.  I will wait until spring, cut it and plant it in a better place.  I'm so happy. When I lived in Washington state blackberries where a weed everyone was always trying to get rid of.  Now I live in California and have had a heck of a time to get them to live and produce.  I love free new plants!  
I have seen the method of covering part of a plant with soil to start a new plant but have never tried it, this makes me want to try it.  I love free new plants!

How sweet it is when one of your plants gives the gift of replication.

I intentionally buried about 6 branches to start another BlackBerry bed. I want to check on them so bad but have been patient...
