trying out jewel black raspberry cuttings from the canes that
trying out jewel black raspberry cuttings from the canes that just fruited. not sure if they’ll root, but they were going to get pruned this fall anyway. I didn’t want to use the new canes coming up, they still have a few ft to grow. Jewel grows quite a bit like a blackberry, where wyoming black seems to grow more compact and bushy like a raspberry. maybe it’s because I have an older plant, or do all black raspberries grow long whippy floricanes?
