Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Raspberry Glen Dee thrives, choose a sunny, sheltered spot with fertile, well-draining soil. Upon arrival, carefully remove the plant from its 9cm nursery pot and place it into a hole twice the width of the root ball, ensuring the top of the root ball sits flush with the soil level. Water deeply immediately after planting. As the canes develop, install a wire or wooden support system; tie the canes to these supports to prevent wind damage. Mulch the base of the plant in late spring to suppress weeds and retain soil moisture. After the fruiting season ends, prune out the spent canes that bore fruit to ground level, leaving the new green canes to produce next year’s crop.
