Raspberry Twotimer Sugana Red®
An ever-bearing raspberry which gives an autumn, then a summer crop, Rubus ideaus Twotimer Sugana Red'® is an upright, deciduous, rather thorny shrub with upright canes. The fruit is huge, red, conical and sweet. The typical raspberry leaves are deep green, turning yellow in autumn. Pretty white flowers, attractive to pollinators, are borne in spring. Self-fertile, you will get an autumn crop on the top third of the cane, and a crop the following summer on the lower two-thirds. To prune, cut away very thick canes and weak canes to leave 5-6 canes in February to March; also prune any part of the remaining canes that has already fruited, leaving the rest of the cane to fruit in July. This is quite a small plant, ideal for the smaller garden or for large containers on a patio or terrace. Plant in soil-based, ericaceous compost.
