I bought an Autumn Bliss raspberry plant in a container from a local nursery; it had three decent length canes, one of which had a couple of fruits on it. When I planted it up it wilted for a few days before perking up. To allow it to bed in better I pruned it back to the lowest bud. The canes were cut into two feet lengths, a bud at each end and stuck in the ground. Out of six cuttings, four have taken; so I now have five raspberry plants for the price of one; not bad for six quid.
