I have to admit from the beginning that I know just about nothing when it comes to growing raspberries. I purchased 2 plants 3 years ago and put them in pots that are in the ground. I tried several times to grow transplants and had no success. This past year I did however get 1 small plant to take root in a pot near my house and got several raspberries from it.
This year that small plant has grown like a weed. I am not sure when raspberries are supposed to produce berries but I have some now. These plant are doing much better than the original plant which is in full sun.
Does anyone have any advice for what to do next? I am trying to keep them staked as much as possible and can’t wait to get lots and lots of berries.
The tags always say full sun. I don’t understand it because berries are wild and are usually found in partial shade. Next year I am going to move my berries as I haven’t had much luck with them either.
I don’t have raspberries, wish I could be of help.
What kind of berries do you have?
We had loads of blackberries that just weren’t doing well the last few years. Strawberries (just a few) and blueberries that are newly planted this year. We did take a raspberry bush from the trash at a store, hoping to bring it back to life. 🙂
