Delicious red berries reliably in autumn and in large quantities make the UK bred ‘Autumn Bliss’ one of the best autumn fruiting raspberry fruit available. Superb flavour and a firm texture make them more than suitable for both enjoying fresh off the plant or for freezing. You can even grow in small gardens with limited space, as the short, robust canes don’t require supporting like most other raspberries and have brilliant resistance to root rot disease. Height: 150cm (59”). Spread: 50cm (20”). All of our raspberries have been inspected by the Ministry of Agriculture for pests and diseases and certified. The bare root plants are hand graded and carefully selected before packing.
Growing Information
Grow autumn fruiting raspberry plants in a sunny position in any well drained soil. Prior to planting, incorporate plenty of well rotted manure or garden compost into the planting hole. Plant raspberry canes in rows allowing a distance of 60cm (24”) between plants. Firm in and water well. Canes should be pruned to 30cm (12”) immediately following planting to encourage more shoots to be produced. Autumn fruiting varieties do not require supports for their stems. They can also be grown in large containers of soil based compost such as John Innes no.3.
