I planted a blackberry bush in my front yard, in with my other flowers and plants. Will it grow bigger, and take over and destroy my other plants?
It isn't doing very well, in fact, I'd say it's probably dead. Will it grow back next year, and will it grow bigger?
I love blackberries and I wanted my own little bush to pick next year.
It is a wild blackberry bush.
 
I don't think you need to worry about it taking over your other plants, just keep it pruned and such and it should be under control. As long as you don't completely kill it, it should also come back next year.

Also, watch for new bushes to pop-up in your yard. Birds love berries. You may find yourself washing your car a bit more often as well.
