Pruning | Raspberries benefit from feeding in the spring & require watering during hot, dry weather. Summer fruiting (floricane) raspberries produce fruit on previous years canes. Cut canes back to soil level after fruiting and tie in newly produced canes ready for the following years fruits. it is easy to distinguish between old canes and new canes as new canes are lush and green |
