Common raspberry 'Tadmor'

Prune summer fruiting raspberries after fruiting removing these stems at ground level. In autumn select five or six good stems and tie into the wires looping the end of the stem to the top wire. Feed in the spring and mulch to reduce weeds

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Tadmor is thought of as hardy, so this plant will survive close to or on freezing temperatures.

Not normally grown from seed. Use suckers or divide established oversized plants

Summer fruiting raspberries need support of posts and wires, as the branches are long and have to remain in the winter. Plant between a double row of posts and wires, to contain shoots and provide support. Mulch ground well and feed with blood fish and bone

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Tadmor is a hardy plant.

Pick fruit as they ripen individually and use at once. The berries freeze well and can then be used for jam or puddings

This variety tends to be ready for harvesting by mid summer.
