Raspberries...

Two years ago I planted six raspberry plants. Today I have more than enough plants. Thankfully I planted them in an area that would contain them. I have thus far this year picked about 9 pounds of raspberries. I am still expecting a fall crop of berries from my plants. Yesterday I spent the afternoon pruning out the plants that are done producing. This was the first year that I actually felt like I understood what I was supposed to be doing when it comes to pruning. I need to buy a book on raising fruit because it might just shorten my learning curve.
