raspberry flowers

15-06-2007, 12:05 PM

Hey all

I have inherited a small patch of raspberry canes having moved house recently, and have noticed that theyhave just started to flower.

Assuming these will be summer fruiters now ( I know I should look to see if they're on hard wood or not but forgot...) when can I roughly expect to pick fruit?

thanks in advance

My fruit have already set, so these sound like late varieties, I suspect you will be harvesting from late July through to early September. Sounds like a long season - you won't be picking all the way through this, they may come in a glut, it all depends on the weather. When they're red, pick them.

Best wishes
