Fruitscaping™ with Raspberry Bushes

Inject your garden with a burst of sweet delight by Fruitscaping™ with our Raspberry Bushes. These hardy, versatile plants offer more than just mouth-watering berries – they can become a beautiful, bountiful part of your landscape, providing aesthetic value as well as a tasty harvest.

Raspberry bushes are contented in rich, well-drained soil, ideally with a slightly acidic pH. To provide your plants with the best start, enrich your garden with plenty of organic matter, like compost or well-rotted manure. This addition improves soil structure and nutrient content, fostering healthier, more productive plants.

Mulching is beneficial for raspberries as it helps retain soil moisture, suppresses weed growth, and adds nutrients to the soil as it breaks down. Consider using organic mulch materials, such as straw, wood chips, or pine needles, which additionally lend an attractive, natural look to your garden.

Raspberries offer a delightful range of flavors and colors, from the classic red to golden, purple, or black berries. Their sweet-tart taste is perfect for fresh eating, jam making, baking, or freezing for future use.

In terms of growth habit, raspberry bushes are self-supporting and create an attractive hedgerow when planted in a row. Alternatively, they can be grown in containers for those with limited garden space. Their arching canes, adorned with dainty flowers and vibrant berries, can add a charming rustic feel to your landscape.

Proper pruning and care of raspberry bushes are essential for plant health and productivity. Regular removal of old canes promotes new growth and better fruit yields in subsequent seasons.

Embrace the vibrant world of Fruitscaping™ with Raspberry Bushes. Relish in the journey from initial planting to the joyous moment of harvesting your homegrown berries. Enjoy the process as much as the fruits of your labor!

Shipping Information

Before Your Plants Arrive: You can find many guides on unpacking, planting, & care, on our growing guides page.

The Journey From Our Nursery to Your Door:  We NEVER ship our plants bare root. Your plant will travel in the very container in which it was nurtured. We thoroughly prune and water them before packing, and make sure they’re well wrapped to retain moisture during transit. It’s as though you’ve personally collected them from our nursery!

Choose Your Ship Date: We understand you’ll want to be available when your plant arrives. Our checkout process features a handy calendar that allows you to choose the Monday on which you want your plant to ship. Depending on your location, you’ll likely receive your plant by Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday of that week. Once shipped, UPS will generate a tracking number and send it to the email you provided. You can then follow your plant’s journey and ensure someone is available to unpack it on arrival day.
