Reuben blackberry against east-facing fence, planted in February this year. I realised, too late, that I should have pruned back the main stems earlier, but the plant really took off once I did cut some of the stems back. There are now two main stems and about 5 shoots about 70cm which all have flowers on them! I've had a few fruit from the original stems, but will those in the photos still ripen? I know I have to cut the plant right back in winter
and next year I plan to train the new growth against the fence somehow.
