Raspberries

Well where else would your thoughts stray other than to raspberries at the end of January?


This may look like a particularly weedy patch of ground, but it is actually where our raspberry canes live.
I'm not sure if this is the correct time of year to cut back all the dead canes from last year, but as it was a dry day it seemed like a good idea.



The large wheel barrow is ideal for carrying all the canes away.
Perhaps this year we will have a more orderly raspberry patch. It's certainly not a row of raspberries! They are an autumn fruiting variety, though I don't remember which one, and carry on fruiting until the first frost finishes the season.
