My Raspberries are taking off, with lots of shoots coming out from the main stem and are getting higher by the day. There are plenty of young fruits on them. I was wondering if i should be reducing the amount of stems, as the bushes seem to be getting very large. These plants are in there second year and seem much more vigorous than last year. Im new to gardening and would be grateful for any advice thanks. jc .jh

Sounds to me like you may have a summer fruiting variety.The greatness comes not when things go always good for you,but the greatness comes when you are really tested,when you take,some knocks,some disappointments;because only if youv'e been in the deepest valley can you ever know how magnificent it is to be on the highest mountain. -
Yes, raspberry bushes are fairly big, and will get bigger every year. Here's a good page on rasps: How to plant raspberries with pictures - page 2All gardeners know better than other gardeners." -- Chinese Proverb.Comment
