My garden is almost the opposite - the raspberries are 'volunteers', gorwing of their own accord a few years ago - all I did this time round was prune them and tie them in.

All the soft fruit and leaves look such beautiful quality.Although as you say it all takes time to pick and then to think what to do with!<br />I just had a catalogue through from one of the seed companies and it was perfectly timed in that it had lots of photos of strawberry plants - I had two plants this year which produced about 8 fruit - an amount I'm keen to increase on next year (shouldn't be too difficult!). It also featured climbing strawberry plants! I don't think there are any tricks that plants aren't now expected to perform!Sallyhttp://www.tomatolover.comnoreply@blogger.com
