Title: Raspberries fruited in summer and new canes are fruiting now??
Post by: Triangle cottage on October 08, 2022, 12:07

So, I don’t know if my raspberries are summer or autumn fruiting.  I had fruits in the summer and afterwards I cut the canes down to the ground and left the new ones, but these are now fruiting, so I am confused whether they are summer or autumn.  I have to confess I planted them myself but they were a bundle of mixed summer and autumn and didn’t label them 😱 ….so I can’t distinguish between them.  Any advice please?

I think apart from the Summer/Autumn fruiting debate, this year's weird weather confused a lot of plants. Some not bearing fruit, some doing it at the wrong time etc.
It'd be a brave allotmenteer who'd give an opinion on which was which, I think  :lol: :lol:

Hopefully next year will clarify things
