Hi Roughie

I got some Autumn Bliss root cuttings from some one in seed savers, before they had become dormant. They didnt survive, so I would suggest leaving them until dormant.

THANKS HELEN FOR YOUR INPUT, I READ AN INTERESTING ARTICLE ON RASBERRIES ON THE NET . IN THE WILLIAMETTE VALLEY IN CANADA, THEY PULL THE LEAVES OFF THE CANES & THEN PLACE THE CANES IN A COOLROOM TO TRICK THEM INTO BEING DORMENT. LOAD THE CANES ON TO SEMI TRAILERS & TRUCK THEM TO CALIFORNIA & PLANT THEM. THIS PRODUCES RASBERRIES ALL YEAR ROUND. FOOD FOR THOUGHT AYE.
