An autumn-fruiting raspberry producing red berries on the current season’s canes, usually from late August into October. A sunny sheltered site improves ripening.

Why we like it

• Autumn crop of red raspberries
• Fruit on current-year canes
• Simple annual pruning

What to know

• Grow in sun or light shade in a sheltered position.
• Plant in fertile, moist but well-drained soil; mulch annually without burying the canes.
• Keep watered during flowering and fruit swelling; avoid soggy roots.
• Provide support for canes and net ripening fruit against birds.
• For one autumn crop, cut all canes to ground level in February, then mulch; new canes will flower and fruit that year.
