Planting & Care

An exceptional new raspberry variety, 'Polka', direct from Poland.
Renowned for its outstanding sweet flavour, large harvests, and consistent yields.
Very easy to grow, with an extended harvest season from late summer into autumn.
As an autumn-fruiting (primocane) variety, it fruits on the current year's growth, guaranteeing a harvest in the first year.
Under optimal conditions, each plant can produce up to 2.5kg of large, succulent berries.
Enjoy fresh raspberries from August right through to October.

Species: Raspberry
Harvest Time: August, September, October
Planting Time: January, February, March, November, December
Position: Full sun or partial shade
Habit: Bushy
Ideal For: Beds & borders, large pots
Eventual Spread: 1.2m
Hardiness: Fully Hardy - does not require frost protection.
Pest & Disease Resistance: Excellent. Protect from birds with a fruit net.
Soil Type: Prefers fertile, well-draining loam or sandy soil.
Tasting Notes: Sweet, with a fuller flavour than most varieties.
Uses: Eating fresh, crumbles, jams.
Fertility: Self-fertile.

Planting: For best results, plant in a sunny location. Space canes 50cm apart. Dig in some organic matter or compost when planting to improve the soil. Also suitable for large pots (40cm+ diameter).
Support: Secure canes to supports as they grow to keep them tidy and support the weight of the fruit.
Watering: Water in thoroughly when planting. Raspberries prefer moist soil, so ensure they are well-watered throughout summer, especially during dry periods.
Feeding: This is not a hungry plant and does not require feeding.
Pruning: This is an autumn-fruiting (primocane) variety. In February, cut all canes that have fruited down to ground level. New canes will emerge in spring to produce that year's crop.
