Autumn Bliss Raspberry Plants
The Highlights

- This has been a soft fruit growers' favourite for many years now, extending that picking season right the way into October
- The fruit ripens later and so is full of rich, aromatic flavours with a extraordinary sweetness
- Expect to harvest from late August through to October
- Plant in a sunny spot in rows, with 50cm between canes and tie into supports as they grow. Can even be planted in a large pot (40cm+ in diameter).

Care Guide
Excellent
Has been bred for excellent disease resistance. Your biggest problem, as with most soft fruit, is that they are so delicious that local wildlife will want to eat them too. Grow in a polytunnel, or use a fruit net to keep birds off.MORE
Keep well watered
Water in thoroughly when planting. Raspberries prefer moist soils so make sure that they are well watered throughout summer, especially during drier periods. 1/2 time a week increasing to every other day when hot/ dry.
Full sun
Full sun means receiving direct sun for more than 6 hours each day during the spring/summer.
Prefers fertile, well draining soil.
Loam or sandy soil is perfect. You should also consider digging in some organic matter/ compost when planting to improve the soil
No need to feed
Don't worry, this isn't a hungry plant so your food bills won't be going up!
