Raspberries
« on: January 29, 2009, 20:09 »
As i missed all the Lidl raspberries I've just ordered 5 Joan J from the Mirror offer.
5 canes for £11.99 inc pp. Not too bad a price.........could have got unnamed ones cheaper in Wilkos but have seen good write ups for Joan.

Anybody else grow this one? Any good?

I don't get that variety over here, but not to worry. Most raspberries taste pretty fab. It's usually just a difference in plant height and berry shape between most varieties.
