Baby Raspberry Plants. (Parson's Heath CO4)
Hi folks, I've got yet more spare Raspberry baby-canes offered (21st batch). They eventually yield gorgeous fresh juicy raspberries, from July onwards next year. I'll dig-up & give 5x plants (bare roots) to one person. Please bring a bag to take them with you. Sorry; I'm not good at taking photographs. They’ll need to be planted on the day of collection to survive; water well for the first week, & talk to them nicely – lol. Location: Colchester, Parsons Heath, CO4 area.
