It’s funny that you posted this because I’ve recently had raspberry plants start growing in my yard out of nowhere. Never bought them and had no idea why they were suddenly in my yard. Turns out they spread from my neighbors yard underneath our privacy fence. I’m not complaining though, free raspberries!
This happened to me and I am complaining. Never plant an invasive plant right along your property line without putting in a proper underground barrier first. That’s a jerk move, even if it’s raspberries. We are having to do a lot of work to get their invasive root system out before it hits our grass. It’s a nightmare. I hope people will take more care when they plant things.
Brooke, how long have you had your raspberry plant? I've heard that new branches don't produce raspberries during their first year. My experience is that's true.
@@g.peterson8894 this will be the 2bd year so hope that is right. I didn't give them anything though, just dug a hole in the yard and put them in so now I'd like to know if they need some sort of fertilizer or something.
@@Brooke-es9nh Blueberries need acidic soil, which might be the problem. Raspberries need to go through like 200hr of below 40° F but really depends on the variety, if this is the second year and they are summer bearing then just keep them watered at least twice a week and wait until around June/July. If the raspberries are everbearing then you should see some berries on the tips of the new shoots around early summer but really it all depends on your grow zone and what cultivar they are.
I always wondered how my grandmother increased her raspberry patches every year, even after she and my grandfather "retired" from farming - except for the kitchen garden, the chickens, and grandpa's bees. Thanks for the secret! She had red, yellow, purple, and black raspberries, the blackberries behind the garage, and the huckleberries on the far side of the barn - opposite the beehives! The farm was about 10 miles outside of Midland, MI. Enjoyed the video.
I put mine in large felt pots and they do great, both single season fruiting and double season varieties. Stops them getting invasive. You have to feed and water more regularly but thats fine. Now I have found the best growing spot I may put some cuttings in the ground. Also most vines like these grow roots if the tips of a cane touches the ground for any length of time. It literally sprouts roots from the end of a cane so to force this you can just let a really long cane drape on the ground or pin it to the soil and its kind of like a strawberry runner. Voilla new plant.
So glad to see this video! I got my first ever raspberry plant as an impulse buy in the late fall, and it looks so lonely in a small raised bed by itself. I'm very glad to hear that in another couple of years I'll have a bed full of raspberry plants with the ability to start a second bed! Thank you!
Thanks Luke! A friend asked me today if I wanted some golden raspberry starts and I wasn’t sure how many I would need to get started. Now I won’t take as many as I originally would have. Thanks again. 👍🏼
I once tip-rooted some black raspberries, which sent out lateral branches - I tip-rooted those too! Now I got a 30 foot stretch filled with the plants.
I had some raspberries that tip rooted also. It wasn't intensional but once it started, I just let go ahead. I figured I would just have more berries for picking next year. :)
@@stevefromthegarden1135 I've had that happen too. Some is okay, but others can be annoying. As it is, turns out that this one wild rose I transplanted (nice flowers, wicked thorns) can also spread that way, as I found out the hard way when I did some hard pruning of it the other day.
@@miss_k3602 You can try. I've had some success, although blackberries don't seem to do well in my neck of the woods, for whatever reason, but still trying to get the to bare fruit - they grow canes but have issues surviving the winter.
Ma'am, my Heritage raspberries are taking over the WORLD. I transplanted 48 runners to be a living thorny wall along a 100' stretch of low chain link fence line. A year later, I have 62 distinct plants along that fence line, after having given away at least 50 runners to family, friends, neighbors even blocks away, and am now mowing any that stray away from that fence line - and my neighbor has begun complaining about their invasion into his yard! :-)
Just yesterday my neighbour offered his backyard raspberry plants to me else he says he'll cut and mow them all. I was puzzled why he would get rid of a plant that gives 100's of raspberries every year....now I know.
Luke, I've learned so much from you over the years, and you've inspired me to start my own garden vlog focused on helping new gardeners with the special challenges we have in Florida, especially South Florida.
I moved ours into a raised bed in the sun last year. Whenever a little cane sprouts in the old spot I transplant it to the most open part of the new raised bed that I can find. Works a treat.
Great info and at the perfect time! I bought a raspberry plant3 years ago and completely forgot about it because it never did anything in my front flower bed. Well this year it took off! I moved it over to the other corner of my house where there's nothing else and set up a trellis behind it. Hoping I see some berries this year!
Trying raspberries for the first time this year! 2 out of three of my plants from groworganic died, which was likely my fault... I'm looking forward to propagation using this method! Thanks again Luke, for another solid video!
With blackberries, if you get a stem that touches the ground it forms roots. I took those out and planted them somewhere else but they died. Do you know why? How do can you propagate them?
Oh wow I'm in Socal and mine for the first time in 3 years have seen a flower, and even a mini blackberry!. I have no raspberries though. I dream but need to find right variety for my dry area! So cool! My bees are going crazy this year! I let some arugula seed, Borage for the first time, some chili peppers, kale, tasoi all flowering and the birds and bees are going crazy!!! ahaha
Fantastic video! My dad has turned three inexpensive blackberry plants into three 50 foot rows. I don’t think it’s ever crossed his mind to sell them at a market, great idea!
A few years ago we bought 2 raspberry plants (Latham is the variety). Over a period of two years, we got 120 suckers + many more we didn’t count (because they were in another bed). Unfortunately we had to move, but we took some of the plants with us. We ended up kind of leaving them in their pots to die, but this year we found some again! They’re hardy and pervasive things.
That’s funny you called them suckers which is more of a tomato thing, not a raspberry thing 😂 I would compare raspberry propagation to strawberries 🍓 or maybe even banana’s 🍌 how they produce “pups” or even Hydrangeas because the tip or “cane” on the raspberry bush just needs to touch the dirt to propagate itself so you can just set a rock or brick or pin 🧷 it down to the soil and it will create another plant for you but definitely not suckers 😂
I put a thornless, bush variety of blackberry in a pot on part of my garden and I've moved it twice now and it has rooted out the drainage hole each time! So now I have 3 blackberry plants! 😋 Such a happy find when I moved it one year because my celery stared to grow too close. 😁
More plants are definitely better lol. I have 1 raspberry bush and It's just starting to grow lots of new shoots all over. I grow them in a container for now but moving them into the ground soon. Great info Luke! Thanks so much for sharing another great video!
I had one little sad plant in my back yard that got trampled to death while repairing the fence. Luckily, their are a few in my neighborhood that aren't technically on anyone's property. I think I'll be doing some raspberry transplants this year after the summer harvest.
I would love to see a follow-up video at the end of their season - how to prune the vines so they are neater. We have tons of blackberry plants that have taken over our yard but my husband refuses to do much more than tie them back. After the growing season, I'm just looking at a jumbled brown mess of vines for the rest of the year. It's an eye sore.
He has videos of that on his channel now if you just type in the search MIGardener and then add the keyword raspberry or whatever you’re looking for from him
What about black currant or red currant and gooseberry? I know a way to clone them very easily. Just take a cutting/branch that has leafs on it, leave only 2-3 leafs on the top and put the cutting/branch into a glass jar full of water and leave it at the window still for 2-3 months. It will grow white roots by itself. After it has a lot of long roots just plant it into a container with black humus soil or into the soil.
I absolutely love this video and definitely learned something new. My bf has been slowly killing my raspberry bush with stocking up machines (like tractors) against the bush despite my protests. Im hoping maybe this yr i can find some new sprouts i can transplant them to a safer area. Thank you so very much for this video ❤
RancisGamer I’ve been watching for years as well, and just realized MI was the state name. (And I’m embarrassed to admit I did know he was from Michigan lol). I guess I didn’t really think of it
Thanks for this tutorial, I have some on one side of my property and would like to have another patch growing on the other side. You always have great detail in your vids and I appreciate it a lot.
It depends on the age of the plant and the time of the season. For us in Michigan, we won't see fruit till summer, so it depends on your zone and growing season.
Cecily Erker not yet they are just leafing out. For me it is usually strawberries, then raspberries then blackberries. Then depending on variety you may get another crop of strawberries and raspberries in fall. I live south of Chicago IL. My strawberries are blooming now.
How big is your yard?! Where do you keep all this stuff? A video on how to fit everything in would be great. lol. I have about a quarter acre ( we have a whole acre but my husband says I cant have anymore of the grass for my garden 🤣)... tips on timing, succession planting, winter outdoor veggies, and just getting the most of compact space would be great!
Thanks Luke love your video, honestly I've learned more from you than any of my teachers at school, you are like my gardening sensei lol hope all is well
This is a great video albeit it covers only a small part of raspberry growing. I like that the author gets straight into practical display with relevant commentaries. Keep it up, bro. Subscribed!
OMG YOU TALKED!😂🤣Good to hear you teaching the masses again Luke!Syndi if he ever tries the no y talk thing again smack him one!Ij he ain't talking its's not an MI gardener video imho. This is more like it!"Blessings of Bounty and May Your Gardens and your Life always Bring You Joy,Inspiration and Abundance!" - Hope
Two years ago I had two raspberry plants. Now I can’t keep them contained! New shoots sprouting up everywhere! I just hope I get enough berries to make it worth the effort.
I bought a potted raspberry on clearance for five dollars last fall, I repotted it before winter, and this spring it is thriving like crazy. I still haven't decided where I'm going to plant it. I also have wild blackberries that have taken over the outer corner of my yard, I may mix the raspberry in with them and just let them both go nuts.
Im curious to know but I've seen in several videos that its not recommended to mix black and red berries! Did you end up doing it if so hows it going ?
It does. I have a video on my page of our FLOWERBED full of thornless blackberries. I started them exactly like this-planting approx 10, all free from a friend. Needless to say...our flowerbed is full! I trim them back and they come back. This is year 3.
I put the tips of the wild black raspberries in a pot of soil. Once it roots and starts a new plant, i snip the mother cane and it becomes a stable plant. No digging but you have to look at a bunch of pots sitting around the mother plant for a while.
I've tried doing that with wild plums. They grow from the roots as well. Last year, I dug up 4. 3 died and the last one, the stem snapped. The roots were still alive though. I checked it a few months ago and it was still alive. I probably need to check it again. Last year as well, I saved 20 seeds from them. I tossed them in the freezer and planted them a couple months ago. I do have 1 so far that germinated and growing
I only bought one raspberry plant. And plan to let it grow until it's more than I need. Then start passing off the ones I don't need to the people I love.
Yeah I didn't know that raspberries multiply the way they did. I bought one little stick from Lowe's last year and the one stick produced three more sticks in the same place as the same plant now this year the runners have appeared and I was super surprised and very excited. I'm growing yellow raspberries.
Wow i have just bought 3 mature plants and struggling at present to put them in where no man has gone before - mature woodland with roots! Oh my back! So, i will have to watch it and keep the ground clear so the babies can be used. They were selling tiny canes we thought were too small. I hope they are sprawling!
Selling to recoup some of my gardening costs is exactly what I am looking to do. I have ever bearing raspberries that are soooo productive. I have a out 10 healthy runners that must be moved. Another plant is the canna. I have so many from a couple plants I am going to sell some
Grape leaves are delicious plentiful and easy to preserve.... Also weeding your garden can be a tasty harvest.... Learn you weeds they are usually more tasty and nutritious than store bought veggies. Always confirm if with 2 sources. Enjoy
Thank you for this video. Over the weekend I was reporting a raspberry plant I bought on amazon. I was freaking out, a little, because it had all of these little stems (now I know offshoots) that keep falling from the middle. I pushed them all together in the new container. Now I will go and start separating them. There were a ton. Woohooo!! Raspberry plants galore for the price of 1. 😊 😉😏
Hi luke I hope you're holding up well. I have been blessed with 100 plants of 5 different varieties all from 5 parent plants years ago. They are amazing and produce abundantly year after year. My secret is I only cut down the floricanes while leaving the primocanes about 4 feet high over winter. This way the primocanes in year 2 (becoming florocanes) get a head start on production by being able to focus on producing leaves on the stalk early and fruit way sooner than new shoots. My raspberries are already heavy with leaves. Thanks for the suggestion on selling the new shoots coming up...I have so many of them. Take care.
I was clearing out a patch I wanted to have my garden in this winter, and it was filled with long spicky plants that I didn't know what were (this is my first time doing any gardening), so I just pulled them out. When the sun started coming out, I found a way better spot somewhere else for my garden, so I moved my efforts to that spot instead. Now I realize that I probably got rid of 100-200 rasberries for no reason... Ohwell. They'll be back soon enough!
Perfect timing for this video! Hoping to get our raspberries in the mail today from MI Gardener! :) Hoping ours grow and multiply over the next few years.
I thought of getting raspberry plants from MIGardener and emailed him about it. I guess he puts his raspberries up for sale not long before spring and I like to order beforehand in like November or before because that is when all the great deals are. Also I don't know much much his shipping is on plants but his prices are about double that of someone like Double A Vineyards and he does not have the variety. He has Heritage but Caroline raspberries are the new and better Heritage for example.
Can I keep them in a pot for growth or do they need the ground? Also since they grow so easily can I use my regular soil or should I buy soil? (I live in Ohio and have been told we don’t have good soil)
@@jonathanandrews6548 where can you buy the thornless raspberries online? I can not find them here at stores have looked for 2 yrs. I did however get thornless blackberries.
@@lisajohnson5113 have you seen how TS went up to four dollars on each chick last year they were 2 bucks each? I think it's cause everyone thinks they can get eggs off a chicken in 2 weeks from a baby chick due to Covid-19 many people don't realize it takes up to 6 months for them to lay the first egg.
I got 4 different varieties of these things in large pots. The amount of Raspberries i get is amazing. ... My plants are about 3 years old, im in zone 4, so around the end of may and begging of june, these things get so bushy and tall that they actually provide shade to me when im sitting outside in the lawnchair. mines get about 4 to 5 feet tall in the containers and i eat raspberries everyday for about 3 months.......
Hey I did not know that I do have a raspberry plant that I put in last year it's looking pretty good this year but I haven't checked it closely I will check the tag to see if it is a rambler crawler or not. Thanks again for the information
Thank you for showing this. Raspberries are my all time favorites. Unfortunately, all the plants I have near me were not taken care of. They are still in big displays , no light and no water. I would not pay $13.00 for a brown plant.
My raspberry looks absolutely flourishing in comparison to yours that look bare of leaves. My raspberry is taller than me now and it's only in it's third year. Can you take cuttings from the raspberry bush without disturbing the root system as my large raspberry bush is in a container. Many thanks.
I know this is an older video but I hope you see this message. I'm wanting to start raspberries in my backyard but what I bought requires a trellis. Can you tell me what kind of raspberry bush you have there in the video?
My Brandywine raspberry is great, but it definitely stays put. I want to propagate it, but have not succeeded even by pinning down canes and putting dirt on those points. I am going to have to try cuttings.
That is great to know! I have a question. How would you go about doing elderberries? I also have an issue with poison ivy. Last year I hardly had any. Now it is coming back like a gang buster. How would you go about it?
We never planted raspberries. They just started growing around the compost from grocery store leftovers. Now we have about 10 plants I'm going to have to move as they are growing in our lawn and put them in a nice garden bed.
It’s funny that you posted this because I’ve recently had raspberry plants start growing in my yard out of nowhere. Never bought them and had no idea why they were suddenly in my yard.

That's why you should never plant anything with a shared root system along a property line. One bottle of weed killer and all your plants are dead.
Please do a video on how to care for raspberry plants and other fruit plants like blueberry or strawberry. I have some but they dont produce well.
Yes I need to hear this too! I had berry plants and they died. Not sure what I did wrong.

Step 1: plant raspberry
Step 2: that's it
Step 3: watch it dominate your garden.
Step 4: Try to rip em out; root and all. And find it's all one giant root, and it's everywhere.
Alternate Step 1: Plant raspberry in bushel basket sized container.
Step 2: Wait for berries.
Mine all die/died 😢
I put mine in large felt pots and they do great, both single season fruiting and double season varieties. Stops them getting invasive. You have to feed and water more regularly but thats fine.

We freeze our raspberries and eat them through the year, our plant grows on a gavel and hard soil area with no sun and yet gives us lots of fruit.
what species of raspberry is it? do you know?
We do this with blackberries
I love those moments when I click on a recommended video and it was just uploaded.

I bought a potted raspberry on clearance for five dollars last fall, I repotted it before winter, and this spring it is thriving like crazy. I still haven't decided where I'm going to plant it. I also have wild blackberries that have taken over the outer corner of my yard, I may mix the raspberry in with them and just let them both go nuts.
Im curious to know but I've seen in several videos that its not recommended to mix black and red berries! Did you end up doing it if so hows it going ?
These basically grow like weeds with a little care
What do you think the wild ones are? Lol!
@@lockwoan01 They are only weeds if you don't want them in your yard. The blackberries in my yard are weeds the raspberries are manna from God.
@@WDMurphy Well, it's still tricky to pick enough to make a pie. lol!
@@lockwoan01 I would crawl through an acre of thorned raspberry brambles for that last lonely berry.
@@WDMurphy Sure, if said brambles actually produced berries!
FIRST! also I love perennial videos!
I like to air layer right into a pot of soil next to the plant
Does this apply to blackberries as well? Thank you for this informative video. I must try it.
It does. I have a video on my page of our FLOWERBED full of thornless blackberries. I started them exactly like this-planting approx 10, all free from a friend. Needless to say...our flowerbed is full! I trim them back and they come back. This is year 3.
Excellent post. Very useful info!!!
Good job kid. Keep it up!
I put the tips of the wild black raspberries in a pot of soil. Once it roots and starts a new plant, i snip the mother cane and it becomes a stable plant. No digging but you have to look at a bunch of pots sitting around the mother plant for a while.
Great info thank you!
Thank you! 💫y
I've tried doing that with wild plums. They grow from the roots as well. Last year, I dug up 4. 3 died and the last one, the stem snapped. The roots were still alive though. I checked it a few months ago and it was still alive. I probably need to check it again. Last year as well, I saved 20 seeds from them. I tossed them in the freezer and planted them a couple months ago. I do have 1 so far that germinated and growing
Happy Spring! Thank you for sharing! Wendy🐞🧚♂️🌸
I only bought one raspberry plant. And plan to let it grow until it's more than I need. Then start passing off the ones I don't need to the people I love.
Will you be growing the gaint crimson tomatos this year ????
Yeah I didn't know that raspberries multiply the way they did. I bought one little stick from Lowe's last year and the one stick produced three more sticks in the same place as the same plant now this year the runners have appeared and I was super surprised and very excited. I'm growing yellow raspberries.
Awesome video. Can you also do a video about blueberries and blackberries? Thanks
Great tip thanks i will be trying this as i want more raspberry plantsxx
Love raspberries! Do they grow fruit on those long spears? Or did you top them off so they won't sag and droop down to the ground?
That’s a great tip!! I love raspberries!
Wow i have just bought 3 mature plants and struggling at present to put them in where no man has gone before - mature woodland with roots! Oh my back! So, i will have to watch it and keep the ground clear so the babies can be used. They were selling tiny canes we thought were too small. I hope they are sprawling!
Selling to recoup some of my gardening costs is exactly what I am looking to do. I have ever bearing raspberries that are soooo productive. I have a out 10 healthy runners that must be moved. Another plant is the canna. I have so many from a couple plants I am going to sell some
Thank you berry much 🙂
I just bought 4 different ones from your website and so excited to receive them
Thanks......very educational.
Grape leaves are delicious plentiful and easy to preserve.... Also weeding your garden can be a tasty harvest.... Learn you weeds they are usually more tasty and nutritious than store bought veggies. Always confirm if with 2 sources. Enjoy
I can now become the basil & raspberry plant guy at the farmers market. :)
Thank you for this video. Over the weekend I was reporting a raspberry plant I bought on amazon. I was freaking out, a little, because it had all of these little stems (now I know offshoots) that keep falling from the middle. I pushed them all together in the new container. Now I will go and start separating them. There were a ton. Woohooo!! Raspberry plants galore for the price of 1. 😊 😉😏
I would love to buy some of I could ever find any....everywhere around me is out of everything garden related...frustrating😫
Mama Cats Crafts and More try Etsy! Just got some from someone on there yesterday and they came in great condition!
The seller was called Day Lily Nursery if that helps
join a local fb gardening group
I also would like to buy some from you I wish u could sell them for some reason I buy mine at Home Depot and they just don’t grow
Janice Werra Try Bonnie plants.
Hi luke I hope you're holding up well. I have been blessed with 100 plants of 5 different varieties all from 5 parent plants years ago. They are amazing and produce abundantly year after year.
My secret is I only cut down the floricanes while leaving the primocanes about 4 feet high over winter. This way the primocanes in year 2 (becoming florocanes) get a head start on production by being able to focus on producing leaves on the stalk early and fruit way sooner than new shoots. My raspberries are already heavy with leaves. Thanks for the suggestion on selling the new shoots coming up...I have so many of them. Take care.
nice we started with 6 from my sister in laws massive area. 3 years ago. we now have 27 this year. left a like
I was clearing out a patch I wanted to have my garden in this winter, and it was filled with long spicky plants that I didn't know what were (this is my first time doing any gardening), so I just pulled them out. When the sun started coming out, I found a way better spot somewhere else for my garden, so I moved my efforts to that spot instead. Now I realize that I probably got rid of 100-200 rasberries for no reason...
Ohwell. They'll be back soon enough!
I love these videos 😁 !
I now have a thornless Young Berry plant which it does a similar thing but not as much & it also makes roots on the tips that hit the ground.
Perfect timing for this video! Hoping to get our raspberries in the mail today from MI Gardener! :) Hoping ours grow and multiply over the next few years.
I thought of getting raspberry plants from MIGardener and emailed him about it. I guess he puts his raspberries up for sale not long before spring and I like to order beforehand in like November or before because that is when all the great deals are. Also I don't know much much his shipping is on plants but his prices are about double that of someone like Double A Vineyards and he does not have the variety. He has Heritage but Caroline raspberries are the new and better Heritage for example.
My raspberries are 2 year canes. I have not been able to move new shoots before. Do they have to be a certain size or is it a variety difference?
it's almost certainly the variety
Thanks, Luke! Quick question, after planting approx. how long until getting raspberries?
Thanks Luke !!! Can’t wait to put them in the ground and multiply.
Thank-you! What kind of pests do raspberries attack and how do you control them?
Can I keep them in a pot for growth or do they need the ground? Also since they grow so easily can I use my regular soil or should I buy soil? (I live in Ohio and have been told we don’t have good soil)

Luke, is this true for thornless varieties?
It has been true for my thornless raspberries.
@@jonathanandrews6548 where can you buy the thornless raspberries online? I can not find them here at stores have looked for 2 yrs. I did however get thornless blackberries.
I saw some at Tractor Supply recently. Try your area too.
@@shirleysunshine3319 I got mine from a neighbor, sorry.
@@lisajohnson5113 have you seen how TS went up to four dollars on each chick last year they were 2 bucks each? I think it's cause everyone thinks they can get eggs off a chicken in 2 weeks from a baby chick due to Covid-19 many people don't realize it takes up to 6 months for them to lay the first egg.
Really good information! Thanks for sharing
Oh how I wish I had the room to plant some. 😩
Great video
I got 4 different varieties of these things in large pots. The amount of Raspberries i get is amazing. ... My plants are about 3 years old, im in zone 4, so around the end of may and begging of june, these things get so bushy and tall that they actually provide shade to me when im sitting outside in the lawnchair. mines get about 4 to 5 feet tall in the containers and i eat raspberries everyday for about 3 months.......
God’s creation is amazing. Thank you for the video Luke I appreciate the info.
Hey I did not know that I do have a raspberry plant that I put in last year it's looking pretty good this year but I haven't checked it closely I will check the tag to see if it is a rambler crawler or not. Thanks again for the information
Used to work on a raspberry farm as a kid. Backbreaking to prune.
I was needing this info, thanks. My friends will be thrilled to get some ras babies.
Great video! Thank you!
Can you do a garden tour?
in zone 10b but I did have a productive plant in a container for a few years, I think ill try again.
Thanks, Luke!!
Thank you for showing this. Raspberries are my all time favorites. Unfortunately, all the plants I have near me were not taken care of. They are still in big displays , no light and no water. I would not pay $13.00 for a brown plant.
My raspberry looks absolutely flourishing in comparison to yours that look bare of leaves. My raspberry is taller than me now and it's only in it's third year. Can you take cuttings from the raspberry bush without disturbing the root system as my large raspberry bush is in a container. Many thanks.
Nice to see. Any advice on propagating grapes?
I know this is an older video but I hope you see this message. I'm wanting to start raspberries in my backyard but what I bought requires a trellis. Can you tell me what kind of raspberry bush you have there in the video?
I saw Jeri Landers of Hopalong Hollow used your seeds on her Antique Plants part 2 video at 1:27 onwards.
My Brandywine raspberry is great, but it definitely stays put. I want to propagate it, but have not succeeded even by pinning down canes and putting dirt on those points. I am going to have to try cuttings.
Thanks for this information and inspiration!
I just planted raspberries in a raised bed!
That is great to know! I have a question. How would you go about doing elderberries? I also have an issue with poison ivy. Last year I hardly had any. Now it is coming back like a gang buster. How would you go about it?
We never planted raspberries. They just started growing around the compost from grocery store leftovers. Now we have about 10 plants I'm going to have to move as they are growing in our lawn and put them in a nice garden bed.
