This weekend I tore out my garden. Sad.
I am turning my current bed, see last post, into another raspberry bed. The kids keep eating them so why not. I might throw some blackberries in there too. Depends what is on sale. Anyway, I tried something called raspberry tipping. I have no clue if it is going to work and only saw one place on the internet that mentioned it. You take a primocane and cut it off at the top. Working in two inch segments you snip them and plant them in the ground. I put about two in each hole about an inch down. Supposedly some of these may actually start growing that is how invasive raspberries can be.
In sad news, the bush cherry I just purchased appears to be gone. :( Maybe a deer ate it. No idea. Good thing is they are having 50% off trees at home depot. I am going to see what they have...maybe. I keep telling myself not to plant more but then I find something I can't pass up.
Lately I have been getting a ton of emails from Gurneys, Spring Hill and a few other suppliers for sales. Too bad they aren't selling what I am looking for.
Sorry about your bush :(
