All Season Raspberry Collection

Planting Advice for Raspberries:

• Plant raspberries roughly 50cm apart in rows, along walls or fences or in beds where further support from posts can be used.
• They can also be grown in large pots (40cm+ diameter) on your patio, balcony, terrace and more.
• Select an appropriate spot for your plants, making sure that you give them enough space to grow to their full size.
• For best results, plant in a sunny, but sheltered position.
• Soak canes in water for a couple of hours before planting to wake them from dormancy.
• Dig a hole with enough room for the roots to spread. If you’re planting multiple bushes, it’s easiest to dig a trench.
• Whether you’re planting bare-root or potted plants, keep the crown of the plant 1 or 2 inches above the ground - raspberries hate to be buried too deeply.
• Fork over the bottom to loosen the soil and add some good quality fertiliser such as Blood Fish & Bone.
• Holding the plant upright in position with one hand, slowly backfill the hole with soil, and gently shake the plant, so the soil falls back around the roots.
• Firm in and water well.

Aftercare Advice:

• A thick mulch will conserve moisture and suffocate weeds. Keep a thick layer of mulch around the plants at all times.
• Water daily from spring until after harvest. Regular watering is better than infrequent deep soaking.
• Remove any suckers (canes that grow well away from the rows) to prevent them taking valuable nutrients away from the main plant.

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
