What Berry Bushes Cost at US Nurseries
Since Aug 18, our daily collection has recorded a sample of berry bushes and bramble fruit listings from 13 US mail-order nurseries. This is what berry bushes and bramble fruit cost today: 25 plants with a price you can actually order at, cheapest first, with the range each one spans across nurseries and how its cheapest price has moved over 51 recorded mornings.
A plant is compared only with itself. Each row is one species across nurseries; there is no average across kinds, because a pawpaw and a peach are not the same purchase. Open any row for the tracked listings and the daily chart behind it. Item prices exclude delivery and tax. Compare size, cultivar and shipping form before treating two listings as equivalent.

This is a tracked sample, not every product a nursery sells. Orderable-price changes include in-stock listings and preorders on both dates. The lowest listing can change because a different size or cultivar became available; it is not necessarily a price rise for the same product.
How this is collected
Our collector is scheduled daily to read nursery catalogues and record, for plants in our library, each listing’s price and whether it can be ordered. Nothing is typed in by hand and prices are not estimated. Check the recorded dates: an unsuccessful collection can leave an older observation in place.
“Cheapest today” is the lowest price at which the plant can actually be ordered across every nursery — in stock, or a preorder that ships in the dormant season. Sizes differ between nurseries (a bare-root whip and a five-gallon tree are both “the cheapest way to get that plant from that nursery”), which is why every row links to a page listing each size and price. A nursery that lists the plant without publishing a price counts toward “nurseries” and contributes nothing to the figures.
- Nurseries
- Botanical Interests, Fast Growing Trees, Gurney's, Hudson Valley Seed, Nature Hills, One Green World, Peaceful Valley, Raintree Nursery, Stark Bro's, Territorial Seed, Trees of Antiquity, Willis Orchard, Woodlanders.
- Record
- 51 mornings, 2026-08-18 to 2026-10-07. A price is stored only when it changes, so a nursery that held one price for a month is one line, not thirty.
- Group
- The 28 plants are the library’s berry bushes collection, filtered to those with at least one nursery listing.
- Updated
- Collection is scheduled daily. Recorded dates show how recent the observations are.
