Title: Jostaberry
Post by: davholla on October 29, 2007, 13:53:23
I have a jostaberry which I am thinking of moving to a shadier part of the garden.
Would this be a mistake ?

I just found this......

Better still for fruit growers, they lack thorns, grow vigorously and are remarkably disease resistant (even to white pine blister rust and mildew). Plants are sold both bare-root and in pots and can be planted at any time of year. Jostaberries require a space of roughly 1.5m (5ft) making them an ideal candidate to the side of a patio. Trees thrive in full to part sun but, in hotter regions, appreciate some afternoon shade.


Hope it helps.

Which reminds me... I need to strike some to replace the row I'm taking out!
