They will grow but they won't crop much at all.

They don't need as much sunshine as most other soft fruits but as Trillium says they won't crop well if they don't get any.

Sow your seeds, plant your plants. What's the difference? A couple of weeks or more when answering possible queries!

One of the best things about being an orang-utan is the fact that you don't lose your good looks as you get older

Wild raspberries are found in woodland, usually at the edge of a sunny opening where the sun gets in.

I do get a crop from some cane which are part shaded by a fence, but I have a strong feeling it would be better in full sun...

You've had 4 replies - yours are clearly not in an ideal position but if you can't move them they will just have to make the best of where they are now.

I planted Autumn gold rasps in the shade of a high fence and trees. They got some afternoon sun.
Last year I had lots of plump fruit but they weren't that sweet (but ok)
This year I notice the new canes are coming up further into the garden. They have decided to move towards the light!!
How clever.....shame I'll be moving them back....... :D
