Hello,
I have just joined and would like some advice please. I live in Central Scotland (Kinross-shire) and I haven't grown a thing yet except herbs and some garlic. Was thinking about growing some fruit bushes in part of my garden while I wait for hubby to rotovate the proposed veg plot. I was thinking of some gooseberries, blueberries. and blackcurrants but am open to suggestions as to which may or may not do well in my area. Is it true that in Scotland you can add a month on to all the suggested planting times. I have quite good loamy soil and when I soil tested it said slightly acidic. Waiting in anticipation for all the good advice. Oh, and the area I propose to put the fruit bushes in is gently sloping and south / south/west facing so plenty sun.
