Raspberry Autumn Bliss

Primocane or autumn-fruiting raspberries are very easy to grow, as they fruit on new wood and do not need support. British-bred Raspberry Autumn Bliss has long been the most popular autumn-fruiting raspberry, bearing huge crops of firm, sweet, red, berries with an excellent flavour. Vigorous and disease-resistant. Plant in full sun, as this variety fruits well into October. Cut all canes to the ground in late winter, but if you leave a few, they will bear a small crop in July.
