Product details
Brand: Roots Plants
An RHS-award-winning, summer-fruiting (floricane) variety famed for its deep red, rich-tasting raspberries. Plus, it has spineless canes!
Originally bred by the Scottish Crop Research Institute, 'Glen Ample' is one of the most popular raspberries to grow.
Highly-rated thanks to its reliability; expect to see large yields, over 2kg per plant, with the fruit holding very well on the bush.
Plant on a sunny spot in rows, with 50cm between canes and tie into supports as they grow. Expect to harvest from late June all the way into September!
Floricane varieties fruit on last year's wood, so it's important to get the pruning right. Cut back the canes that fruited at the end of the summer, leaving roughly eight that didn't fruit (these will be green stems) to grow next year.

The bare root raspberry plants were healthy when they arrived and they look just as healthy now. They have been in the ground now for a few weeks and survived the snow we had in Bournemouth, (a rare occurence) and storm Bert. We followed the planting guidelines provided and all five plants look hale and hearty with many buds. We will be putting some wire across attached to the fence soon to support them properly as they grow. Looking forward to a good crop of raspberries in the summer!

Bit disappointed with it there's only 1 little shoot on it so not sure how it will get on. The raspberry bushes in the local garden centre is a lot more bushier so hopefully it will pick
