Description
- The ultimate raspberry collection – these top performing canes are the varieties our growers have in their own gardens. Glen Ample, Polka and Autumn Bliss crop at different times of the year to give you a constant supply of fresh berries right from June to October. No more squashy supermarket berries for you!
- All three are RHS Award of Garden Merit winners and hold Plants for Pollinators status. As you’d expect, they’re all sweet tasting, heavy cropping and easy to grow.
- Summer-fruiting Malling Jewel produces large fruit with excellent flavour from early July. Plus, they have the added bonus of keeping their firmness on the bush for at least a week after ripening.
- Autumn Bliss takes over from August and keeps going up until the first frosts in late autumn – it’s super hardy and won’t need much support.
- Autumn-fruiting Polka is renowned for its sweet flavour and superior keeping ability. It crops from midsummer to October but in mild years can produce two crops a year. Better clear some space in the freezer…
- All three varieties are self fertile, easy to grow and boast good disease resistance.
- Eat fresh from the plant or use for jams, desserts and smoothies.
- Plant next to a fence or wall or grow up a trellis in a sunny, sheltered spot for the best crops.
