Description:
I love raspberries and it always amazes me how easy they are to grow. This particular variety produces lots of big, flavorsome fruits that are more resistant than most to diseases.
Care:
I make sure the plants are fed and well watered in the height of growing season but be sure to not let them become waterlogged. Pick frequently when ripe to encourage more fruits and once a stem has finished fruiting cut it down to the ground!
Current appearance: Pre-growth (potting cane)
