The Raspberry Patch

Hubby got to work this week on our new Raspberry Patch.

He took clipings and seedlings from his mom's Raspberry plants to start ours.

We have two rows on the SW corner of the Orchard that once homed grapvines. Most had died off by the time we moved here, but there are still a few we are trying to keep going. The parts of the grapevine area no longer 'housing' live grape vines are now being transformed to other gardens - hence the Raspberry Patch.

Another section is going to be for my Moon & Stars Watermelons.

Hubby got 15 seedlings planted; fingers crossed they do well!

If I remember correctly, I think he said one plant is a Blackberry bush too.


What do you plant with/near your Berry bushes? Anyone?

I hope to see lots of Raspberry jam & butter next year :)
