Raspberries...Recommendations please

[samaniain]

We would be interested in hearing your recommendations for raspberry canes. Looking for a good yield of juicy fruit.
Thanks

I grow lots of types but I find the best red ones are Polka and Joan J, I like the taste and they give more fruit than some others ,
I also grow a lot of `Fall Gold` these taste the same but are yellow and make strange looking yellow raspberry jam , the benefit of these is that birds dont seem to touch them at all

I'll agree with Joan J - thornless as well

Glen Ample is a super summer fruiting raspberry. Nice large fruits and spineless canes.

Joan J has a great flavour and a big crop, really good Autumn variety.

I've tried leaving a few canes on this year, want to see if I can get a small summer crop as well.

As previously said Polka or Joan J are good.
Being Autumn fruiting they are easy to take care of.
They grow, they fruit, you cut them down.

Don't mix Summer and Autumn varieties, that just causes confusion concerning the pruning and management.
