'Autumn Bliss' Raspberry Plants

  • A spectacular autumn-fruiting variety which has been awarded the RHS Award of Garden Merit for its wonderful flavour, reliable crop and ease of growing.
  • This has been a soft fruit favourite for many years now, extending that picking season from August right the way into October.
  • The later ripening leads to rich, aromatic flavours with an extraordinary sweetness. As one of the naturally more compact varieties, 'Autumn Bliss' is a great pick for smaller spaces.
  • Raspberry plants are on the Royal Horticultural Society's Plants for Pollinators list, so you'll be benefitting both bees and butterflies by planting some.
  • A primocane variety. Primocane varieties fruit on the current year's growth. In February, cut back all the fruited canes to the ground. New canes will pop up during spring.
