Afternoon All,

My sister in law has just moved to a new house, and the back garden has a well established raspberry patch, so I dug out about 10 of her runners, that we about 12-15 inches high.

Are they are ok to be planted now, and will they crop this year?
When weeding, the best way to know if its a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull it.

If it comes out easy, it was a valuable plant !

Yes, plant them now - as for fruiting it depends on how much of a shock the move was to them.  :lol:

It also depends on whether they are summer or autumn fruiting :)

OK, i'll plant them tomorrow morning. They are in a bad with an elastic band around the roots at the moment, in a cool place.

Any tips?

Should I build a structure for them?
