Raspberries (Autumn)

(1/3) > >>

IanDH:
Hi All

I am looking to change varieties of raspberries that I grow.  Particularly looking for Autumn varieties.  Currently have Autumn Bliss and am looking for a couple of other varieties to supplement these.  On a practical side would like varieties that grow no taller than 6'.

Based in South Derbyshire on heavy clay - only 1 spit of soil over clay pan.  6.5 - 6.8ph. 

Will be looking to plant up over winter.  Any ideas of varieties that I can look at?

I grow Joan J, they are the best flavour, prolific and make the most amazing jam. They start cropping in July and can go on until November and need very little care as they don't need tying in.

I'm in Derby, similar soils type. Still growing "Autumn Bliss".

I'm in Derbyshire too. After reading on here how easy Autumn Raspberries were, I got some Joan J, only half a dozen plants. They are in a patch of clay-ey stony ground right against the west facing house wall. They are the most amazing things, gorgeous taste, go on for ever, bounce back every year despite being infested with couch grass and bindweed, and have slowly but surely spread so I know have about 20 plants. Honestly, they are miraculous.

Hi Small, lovely to hear someone think the same as me :) :) :)
