Blackberry is evil.
If it is not native to your country don't plant it! Nothing eats it, grows extremely quickly and is very hard to get rid of.
Rubus Ursinus (Pacific blackberry) and Allegheniensis and a few others are native to the US. They're still prickly but not evil, we have some in the backyard and the turkeys love them.
I'm in NZ, of there is a naive blackberry, I've never heard of it. But we have a lot of blackberry in this country, it all sucks.
If I ever did get one, I'd probably want to grow it indoors anyway, if that's even possible. I'm more a city person and dont especially desire living somewhere with lawn space to maintain
Sounds like you'd be interested in hydroponics.
I mean tell that to all the birds eating my blackberries.
They are spreading seeds.... That is the point of the berries.
Nothing eats the plant.
Even goats, which famously will eat blackberry, will eat anything else first.
