Slow to start

These grow wild in the area, but the patches I used to frequent have died off. After receiving these in mid-April, I soaked them and planted them in temporary pots to encourage growth. It took over a month before I saw any results- in fact the canes had no growth, instead new canes sprouted directly from the roots. Once they sprouted, they took off- I had several inches of growth within the week.

I planted this raspberry over a month ago and it still doesn't have any growth on it. I'll probably end up buying something local instead.

I've seen them in the wild.

I've seen these raspberries near lake Erie and picked a few and was delighted by the flavor. These berries made the perfect pie and I was the envy of my family. I highly recommend these berries to the next person.
