Raspberry

Common Name: Rubus

There are 2 types of Raspberries- summer bearing, which produce fruit in summer and everbearing, which produce fruit in the fall as well as summer.

The first year after planting, all the flowers should be removed to allow the plant to build up reserves. From the second year on, the plants will flower in the spring and the Raspberries will ripen in the summer. Raspberry plants need adequate water and fertilizer in the spring and summer, but quantities should be decreased in fall to harden the canes for winter. In the winter the old flowered canes should be pruned to ground level.
