Fruit Bushes or not?
« on: October 08, 2013, 21:56 »
We have a small part of our garden which gets the full sun from early morning when it rises up until approx 11am.  We would like to use this for fruit bushes such as gooseberries , poss some rhubarb - not sure what type of fruit will grow in part sun/shade - any suggestions pls.  :)

gooseberries and blackberries will tolerate some shade.

Raspberries also like a little shade.   :)

Don't know why I didn't think of blueberries. Mine are in part shade (in raised beds) under a huge walnut tree and they're doing exceptionally well.
