Thanks for a wonderful video. I was able to find these Polka variety and planted them, along with some other varieties we already had. We were thrilled with the results. The berries are huge and have become one of our favorites.
This vid was by far the most helpful
Fantastic how to videos thank you
i think this video is the best ever about rasbbery plant. very clear and informative . thank u
Fantastic, thanks Danny
I bought 6 mature raspberry plants from you years ago. I was so proud of them, they never let me down. Each season we would pick the berries as and when needed. We could never eat all the berries so our neighbours, friends at our church, Sons & Daughters and our Grandchildren would end up with the punnets that we could't eat in fruit salads, ice cream my wife would turn into gorgeous pies and jars and jars of jams. The year before last some kind person stole all of our frost free planters along with the plants & shrubs, years and years of collecting from all over the country and a couple from abroad gone in one night! The plants and planters we are gradually replacing, except for the raspberry pots... I would never get them as strong as the originals! From little shoots grew into fruit heavy ball shaped beauties, pruning every year or when needed. I never had to bring them indoors to over winter or anything... I was lucky there. I for one can RECOMMEND YOUR PLANTS & SHRUBS 100%. I miss them. I'm trying to find a fast growing/cropping variety, any advice would be gratefully received. Thank you for sharing I always enjoy the THOMPSON & MORGAN videos interesting and learned loads along the way..... BIG THUMBS UP ALL DAY LONG.
Well that's a great review!! Thank you Andrew. (Feel free to pop one on Trust Pilot for us as well ;)

Thanks. I'm already training her up as my new gardening apprentice!! Glad you enjoyed the video.
yummy
so do you dig up the plants every year (the fall crop raspberries) or do you leave them once planted?
Nice video. I´m planting my firts raspberrie. I will use the net.
Good luck!
Hello John. These are an Autumn fruiting variety called 'Polka'. You can buy them by folowing this link. bit.ly/1n8bezG
Hi, i just purchased a raspberry plant it is already flowering and bearing some fruits and about 50 cm high but it doesn't tell if it is an everbearing type or the other type all it says on the label (itlian language) is:
- blossom time in april and may.
- pruning period in august and september.
- ripe for picking in august, september and october.
Based on your experience what type of raspberry it is?
And as for the suckers can they be grown in another pot when removed?
When do you prune raspberry bushes, in the fall or now in the spring? Or do I leave the woody stalk all year round?
Brian Witt Hello. It depends on whether you are growing autumn fruiting or summer fruiting vareties. This article may help you. www.thompson-morgan.com/how-to-grow-raspberries
Great video. I am in southwest florida where it is really hot year round. Do the raspberries plants only last 2 years and then you have to plant new ones?
No Raspberry plants will fruit for many years if you look after them and prune them properly.
I just moved into a place with a neglected summer fruiting raspberry patch. They aren't really in rows anymore, and the canes awe pretty high with no leaves on the bottom (surrounded by 5 foot weeds). We live in a region where the ground is frozen from Nov to late April. When would be the best time to transplant this year's primacanes into rows? Should I trim them down at all?
I would certainly cut them all back hard and see what returns next year. This will rejuvenate them and you can probably reinstate the rows by simply cutting away any new growth that lies beyond the main row. I would cut them back in autumn once the foliage falls.
Any advice on how to tell the dot between summer and autumn plants please ?
Easiest way is to see when they fruit. Summer fruiting raspberries fruit late June through to August. Autumn Raspberries fruit September through to November. Summer fruiting raspberries fruit on last years wood. Autumn fruiting raspberries fruit on this years growth.
So is the cane itself supposed to grow? Or am I getting new shoots away from the cane? I planted two canes and cut them down as suggested. I have one little plant growing about 12 inches from the cane. The cane itself looks exactly as it did when I planted it (brown stick). So is this new raspberry plant a "sucker" or is this my new raspberries growing? I bought ever-bearing variety (autumn fruiting).
The cane will produce new shoots provided that there are some healthy buds for them to shoot from. However you will also gets lots of suckers a little away from the plant. Keep the ones that are located closest to the original cane and remove any that appear further away.
Hi I bought a pot of five summer fruiting raspberry canes and instead of separating them out individually, I've put them in a group of five splayed outwards, as I want to surround each cluster with a hazel wigwam to support them as a group. I wonder though, if they are too close together, all in the same hole, or doesn't it matter?
You may find that they will become congested as they mature and start to compete for light, water and nutrients, which is likely to reduce your crop. There is no reason why they cant be planted in a circle but it would be best to give them their own planting holes and a little space between each plant.
Had flooding last year would that affect them this year lost half the crop this year?
If the plants are still healthy then it shouldnt affect the crop this year. Only thing that occurs to me is perhaps they were floricanes (that fruit on the previous years growth). If that growth was damaged and those plants only have this seasons growth to show, then that might affect your crop this year. If thats the case then next years crop should see an improvement.
How did you make that support for the net
We just knocked some wooden posts into the ground and then nailed the wooden supports to the top of ther posts. The net is simply draped over it.
I've NEVER seen raspberries that big! Pure berry porn.
Largely due to the variety.
Hi, do raspberries grow in tropical climate? I'm from Costa Rica and most types of berries except for blackberries are not common here. I was thinking about growing some raspberries, cranberries and blueberries but since the temperature here is always around 20-25 °C I don't even know if it's possible for them to grow here. Any advice? Also, here our winters are actually super rainy and the coldest temperature is of like 17°C.
+Carolina De La Ossa Most berries do seem to prefer a cooler climate, including raspberries. Having said that, if you are able to get hold of a plant in your area then why not give it a go? There is always an exception to the rule!
I'm a little late to plant in march, will I get away with planting them in April? And still get autumn fruiting?
Yes you can still plant in April. Keep them well watered in the first season and they will establish nicely :)
Just to ask. I'll be planting 3 in a rectangle plot. If they get the sun for the first 2 3rds of the day will that be OK? Or I have another that will get them sun for the last 2 3rds of the day? And lastly it's not the best soil but it's been freshly dug and I do have access to compost from next door.
Hi Garreth. Either plot will do - raspberries really aren't that fussy. Best of luck with them.
Thompson & Morgan TV ok thank you! I've had problems with reply fussy plants before... That makes my life easier!
i just ordered Raspberry Glen Coe , what size pot do you recommend I grow it in?
hardcore4d4 Raspberry plants are quite vigorous and will get of to a quick start at this time of the year, so you can get away with slightly overpotting into a 30cm diameter pot.
growing raspberries in ontario
This year my autumn raspberries have been producing fruit in July. Is this an unusual phenomenon?
No its not particularly unusual. You will find that the crop will increase more towards the autumn though.
What type of raspberry is that? The fruit are HUGE!!
in her video she said rasberry called 'polka'
Might be a dumb question but do you have to replant every year?
No, they are hardy fruiting shrubs which will return year after year.
What type of raspberry should we plant in Toronto. We are in May is it ok to plant ? Or is already too late ?
You can plant any variety that is available. They should grow nicely in Toronto, and they are hardy enough to see out the winters.
Thompson & Morgan TV thanks for the prompt response
Please put additional food out for the birds if you cover your crops peoples!
Great vid by the way . Thanks for the tips.
that is one of the great things about raspberries, I've never had birds care for them much.
why? what would be the difference if they didn't plant raspberries. would you still say go out and put additional food out. foolish comment. birds can make it on their own.
We don't have birds ....we have labradors
This is Polka ?
Yes I believe so.
sir,I want ask you can I plant raspberry plant at tropical climate like indonesia we know indonesia is a religion tropical so plant raspberry able live at religion warm like Bali island can you reply my question if you see my text thanks
It is always worth trying plants in different climates - they often surprise you with how well they grow! It is worth remembering that Raspberries have quite shallow root systems though, so you would need to keep them well watered in a hot climate. Humidity is also a limitinmg factor as raspberries can suffer from mildew without adequate airflow.
Thompson & Morgan TV then in a hot country like Indonesia where the temperature can raise up to more than 30°c, do I have to put the raspberry plant under direct sun or in the shade will just be fine?
why doesnt any of these videos tell how deep to plant the damn things? No idea if im planting too deep.
Sorry if that wasnt mentioned. You can normally see a soil line on the bottom of the stem which indicates how deeply the canes where previously planted. Try to plant them at the same depth. If you cant see a soil line then just make sure that the roots and the base of the canes are below soil level and the plants are fimly planted to retain their stability. Hope that helps.
I bought mine from a big box store. They had dirt packed up way higher than the roots so I didn't know. Planted them last week so we'll see!
Good luck - Raspberries are pretty tough plants so they should cope ok.
