Raspberries



We planted raspberries for the first time this year and although they haven't produced much yet the berries we have gotten have been big, juicy and wonderful. The bushes are spreading all over and sending up shoots so it is high time to get them staked and trained up in some way. And they are way stickery too...I need to find some good long gloves. Maybe some gardeners rose pruning gloves would work well. Might have to cut off the fingers on the picking hand to be able to handle the berries. They are very delicate and easy to squash. Anyway, they look like a big winner and will be worth the effort in spite of the stickers and scratches!
