When?
« on: April 22, 2010, 21:46:15 »
I've just looked up Tulameen raspberries, & it says they are late fruiters. Does this mean they will fruit this year? I thought they were Summer fruiters so none until next year.

The different growers seem to have slightly different descriptions, but it looks like they're a mid-to-late summer fruiting variety, so they fruit on last year's wood in July and August, and they're not autumn fruiting raspberries.  But if you haven't already, don't cut them down to the ground when you plant them and you should get a crop this year.
