Raspberry

Raspberry canes are a great addition to any garden. Raspberries are extremely good for you as they have high levels of Vitamin C and anti-oxidants. Plant raspberry canes when they are dormant, usually from October to March, in rows which are 1m-1.5m apart, and with 45cm between each cane. Prepare the soil well, cut to 20-30cm (8-12") on planting. As the bushes start growing, they may require support with soft ties. Please note that there is a high chance these won't fruit the first year, as they are becoming established plants.

Our soft fruit raspberries are either Floricane (summer fruit raspberries), or Primocane (autumn fruiting raspberries).
Floricanes fruit on canes produced in the previous year. After harvesting the soft fruit, cut out the old fruited wood in autumn and winter and tie in the new growths to the supports.
Primocanes fruit on canes produced in the current year. After cropping, these should be cut down to ground level to promote the growth of new canes. Allow primocane raspberry beds to spread up to 75cm/ 2.5ft wide, but dig out any canes which start to grow between the rows.
