About Raspberry
Raspberries are productive cane fruits that spread readily — give them space and support.
Plant bare-root canes in early spring or fall. Install posts and wires for support. Summer-bearing varieties fruit on second-year canes; everbearing varieties fruit on first-year tips in fall.
Gardening in Alaska
