Grow your own raspberries with this great value collection
Great collection comprising 18 plants (6 of each variety): Glen Ample (picture 1) - An exceptionally high-yielding modern cultivar (the most widely planted mid-season variety), producing an abundance of large, succulent, berries (around five to the oz.) which are superbly flavoured, deep red fruit and excellent fresh or frozen. Canes are vigorous, upright and spine-free, making picking a pleasure, and the fruit holds well without spoiling. Once established on a well-prepared, fertile soil, 10 canes will reward you with over 40 lb of fruit between late June and early August. Royal Horticultural Society 'Award of Garden Merit' winner; Malling Minerva (picture 2) - An early variety that will fruit from early June and carry on for up to six weeks, producing a bountiful crop of good-sized, deliciously flavoured, medium-firm berries. The succulent flesh pulls effortlessly from the central core, making picking easy. An excellent choice as plants are disease resistant, spineless and easy to manage; Brice (picture 3) - This superb late fruiting raspberry is a real winner. Our trial plants produced heavily - over ½lb of fruit per plant each week from late July right through to late October - we even picked a few fruits in November. Leaving the primocanes over winter we picked a useful crop in June before removing them to allow the new autumn canes to mature. In this way we picked delicious, large juicy raspberries for nearly five months! Spine free canes make picking easy. All three varieties are certified under the Plant Health Propagation Scheme (PHPS) and are hand graded and selected before packing.
