raspberries - how to plant
« on: May 23, 2007, 22:17 »
I have just bought some raspberry plants. They have come bound together and what looks like about a dozen sepearte stems all with roots.
Some with leaves some without. How should they be planted - all together , 2 or 3 together or all seperate ?
A slug is for life not just for the allotment

About 8" apart with loads of compost. Keep them watered until they perk up. Bit late to plant them but they're hardy things
Self-sufficient in rasberries and bindweed. Slug pellets can be handy.

Not sure I'm new To this did not realise you could get summer and autum ones. They had quite a lot at garden center so perhaps they are autumn ones. Will they have fruit this year ?

Maybe, but not a lot.

You really need to know whether they are Summer or Autumn ones, as they require different treatment in the way of pruning.
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?
