Am I too late to order and plant Raspberry canes
« on: March 21, 2021, 14:45 »
Hi All

I've been planning on setting up a new Raspberry area. Yet again due to one thing or another I've left it a bit late.

However I notice that lots of reputable companies are still selling canes. They are at a very good price too, no doubt due to being end of planting window.

My question is is it worth me ordering them and planting as soon as they arrive? or Am I best to wait till next year and pay full price?

Cheers Truffle

As we seem to have had a late start to spring, I think you'd still be ok as long as they get delivered/planted promptly - perhaps check out any near-by garden centres?

I'd check how quickly they can dispatch and if you will get them by the end of the month I'd go for it and if you get a failure or two you can fill with runners from the successful ones.

I ordered some Joan J from Ashridge trees and planted them a few weeks back. They are just showing signs of life here and we aren't too far from you.
