Raspberries from seed

[sleepyowl]

I dug up all of my raspberry and gave them a new home to a lady down the road from me who grows her own, I did have a couple of raspberry fruits that went over & now I have raspberry plant coming up, my question is will they fruit & would they be any good.

Raspberry's don't really grow from seed, they throw out "root shoots" and babies come up from there.

They are a Biannual. This year's fruit baring plants, throw out this years babies. After fruit baring (in the winter) they die. This years babies, will bare fruit next year.

To keep your patch healthy, next spring you should clean out the dead canes. You'll be able to tell, they have their "bark" split off, and aren't "green" ...

Good luck w/ your berries ;)

It depends where your new raspberries are coming up. If they are where the old ones were then they are probably regrowth from the roots you left in.
Raspberries will (and do) throw up suckers as far as 10 feet from the original plants. Not really suckers, but new canes.

If it really are seedlings then they may or may not be worth keeping, only time will tell.
But if you think about it, that's the way new varieties are produced and you might just grow a new variety worth having.
