Product information
Tasty fruit are produced every year, from this easy to grow bush.
- Sunny
- Flowering period - Summer
- Remove 'old' stems which have fruited earlier in the season, This will encourage the growth of new fruit producing stems, Cut down fruited canes as close to the ground as possible, Ideally you should do this as soon as they’ve fruited, Removing them sooner rather than later has a couple of advantages, One, they won’t be a drain on the plant’s energy, which will then be concentrated into the new canes, destined to bear next year’s fruit; two, they won’t shade the new canes from sunlight, so the latter will develop better, The taller and stronger the new canes are at the end of the summer, the more fruit you’re likely to pick next year.
- Clear any fallen leaves in the autumn, and cover the roots with well rotted farm yard manure in the spring, feed regularly when in flower or fruit.
- Summer
- Ensure soil around plant roots remains moist for the first 6 months until the roots have grown into the surrounding soil, During periods of dry weather slowly apply a full watering can of water to the plant.
