All our Raspberry canes are ministry inspected.

Autumn fruiting varieties, i.e. Autumn Bliss, Polka and Joan J are completely cut to ground level during the winter.

Summer fruiting varieties, These fruit on the second year cane (normally darker than the one year cane)The second year cane is pruned back down to soil level in the winter after they have fruited leaving the one year old cane for next summers crop.

situation

Plant the canes about 18” (45 cm) apart with 6 ft (1.8 m) between the rows. Avoid planting the young canes too deeply, a covering of 3” (7.5 cms) over the roots is ample. Cut the canes down to 2” (5 cms) above the soil immediately after planting (bare root canes only, Do not cut down the 1 litre potted canes). In the spring when the new shoots appear from beneath the soil the 2” stub should be cut away. The young canes are tied into a wire fence system for cropping the following season. Subsequently all canes which have fruited are cut out at ground level immediately after fruiting.

Raspberry Canes

Raspberries are popular garden fruits that are easy to grow. Try growing both summer and autumn-fruiting varieties. Just a few plants will reward you with plenty of fruit from mid summer until mid autumn. The fruits is good for pies, jam or eating fresh. They fruit on the previous year's cane which must be tied up to support the crop. Except the Autumn fruiting varieties. These crop on one year cane and should be cut back to ground level after fruiting.
