Hardy and disease resistant, this heavy producing raspberry is an absolute favourite. An early season variety, The Boyne bush will bear only on one-year-old stems. As soon as canes have produced fruit, prune them back to the ground to make room for the strong new canes. Raspberries grow best on deep, sandy loam soils with a little organic matter. Heavy silts and clay soils should be avoided because of poor growth and lower yields. Good drainage and adequate supply of moisture are essential for peak performance. Perfect for baking, eating raw, canning, juicing – you name it!
