• I need help. :(

    I have planted raspberry canes, a gooseberry, and a a blackcurrant bush. I stuck them in the soil in December (I think).

    The gooseberry and currant came as very small plants (3-4 branches of 20cm emerging from a central crown) and now have lots of leaves, but no vertical growth. Will this come, or should I prune the ends of the branches to stimulate growth?

    The raspberry came as four canes in a pot. It's an autumn-fruiting one. I planted the canes but didn't cut them back. Should I do that now, or is it too late?

  • As Andy said, leave the raspberries if you only put them in this winter/spring. Then find out what variety they are, and if they are a primocane (fruit on the new canes each year), or a floricane (fruits on last years canes). You need to cut them back accordingly in about February each year
