Characteristics


How to plant a Raspberry (yellow)

Stick cuttings well deep into the ground in a sunny place.

How to harvest a Raspberry (yellow)

Propagation by cutting or laying off. The raspberry can be planted all year round, but if planted in the autumn/winter, the raspberry will fruit on the following year.

Caring for and pruning your Raspberry (yellow)

Pruning: if you want to be able to harvest twice a year, cut away every stem that has been picked empty and leave all the new ones in place. If you want one big harvest in the fall, cut all branches 10 cm above the ground at the end of October after the plant has given fruit. Fertilization: raspberries like humus-rich, slightly acidic soil and therefore require an organic fertilizer.

Where does a Raspberry (yellow) grow

The raspberry roots shallowly and therefore needs an airy humus-rich moist soil.

Felling areas. Light, open places in forests, along (rail) roads.

Reproduction rate

Reproduction rate

1. Very low reproduction rate. The plant hardly spreads, has few seeds or vegetative spread (e.g., trees with heavy seeds).
2. Low reproduction rate. Spread via limited seed production or specific conditions required
3. Average reproduction rate. Regular spread, depending on wind, water, or animals, at a moderate speed (e.g., dandelion).
4. High reproduction rate. Many seeds and multiple spread strategies (wind, birds, vegetative). Quickly colonizes open spaces
5. Very high reproduction rate. Invasive species that spread explosively over large distances (e.g., Japanese knotweed).
