Raspberry, Jewel Black
Rubus x 'Jewel'
Caring for Jewel Black Raspberries requires full sunlight and watering regularly. Prune after harvest by removing old canes and thinning new growth to prepare for next season’s fruit.
Fruit is borne on previous years growth. Every fall or early spring remove canes that have fruited. Prune new canes off as they reach 36". Thin out weak and damaged canes.
Planting Info
1. Dig a hole 1.5 times as wide as the diameter of the rootball. Depth of the hole should be equal to depth of the rootball.
2. Set plant in the hole so the top of the rootball is even or slightly above ground soil level.
3. Refill around the rootball with a mix of 1/2 existing garden soil and 1/2 Earl May Organic Planting Mix blended with Earl May Structure. Step down on soil to eliminate any large air pockets.
4. Build a soil ring the size of the rootball around the plant, to help hold in water.
5. Add a 1 inch layer of mulch around the plant, keeping mulch away from the trunk.
6. Water slowly with Earl May Plant Start mixture right away. Enjoy watching your new plant grow!
