I'll shortly have Autumn Bliss coming out of my ears, but my summer ones leave a lot to be desired. They were just found on the plot when we took it on and it's time they went as they are under-achieving.

What's a good one to put in?

Malling Promise for a really early raspberry, Malling Delight to follow on.

I have never got on with the Scottish 'Glen' varieties.  I guess it depends on local circumstances. 

My best cropper ever was Norfolk Giant, which is hardly available now because it was supposed to be temperamental.  Its successors are Malling Admiral and Leo.

i am new to raspberries, i planted glen ample in january got fruit in june, that early enough? off 5 canes ive got about 6-8 punnets - i think these are my most successful crops this year - well pleasing anyway, i must have had half an elephants weight in yellow ball courgettes!

Thanks both.

Good idea gillie with the two follow on varieties, I'm looking at a 32' row so it'll be good to space them time-wise.

Keep 'em coming.
