Sow and Plant
Plant in mid-fall or early winter when it's not too cold for a little root growth to help them establish.
Our Garden Planning Tool can produce a personalized calendar of when to sow, plant and harvest for your area.

Notes
After harvesting cut the canes down to ground level, leaving any new shoots.
|
Harvesting
Harvest fruit when ripe. Can protect with netting if birds are eating them but make sure that the plant doesn't grow through the netting making it difficult to remove.
