Description:
This compact plant is excellent in patio planters or the landscape. Bright red, delicious fruit for a mid-summer harvest. Raspberry Shortcake® performs best in a fairly neutral soil with a pH of 6.5–7.5. The soil and location should be well-drained and in full sun.
All of the varieties in the Bushel and Berry® collection will thrive in patio pots, edible gardens or in the landscape for years of enjoyment. It is recommended planting in a large container, up to a half-whiskey barrel (22” in diameter). This is a cane berry that will continue to grow shoots which will eventually fill the container.

Place the container out of the wind. Warrantied until October lst.
