- Introducing 'Polka', an exceptional raspberry variety from Poland, a country renowned for its raspberry cultivation.
- Considered one of the world's best, 'Polka' offers outstanding sweet flavour, large harvests, and consistent yields.
- Easy to grow, this autumn-fruiting variety produces fruit on the current year's growth, guaranteeing a harvest in the very first year.
- Enjoy an extended harvest season from August right through to October.
- Under optimal conditions, each plant can produce up to 2.5kg of large, succulent berries.
- Bred for excellent disease resistance, making it a robust and reliable choice for your garden.
- 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.
- Soil Type: Prefers fertile, well-draining loam or sandy soil.
- Tasting Notes: Sweet, with a fuller flavour than most varieties.
- Uses: Ideal for eating fresh, and making crumbles or jams.
- Fertility: Self-fertile.
- Planting: Plant in a sunny location, spacing canes 50cm apart. If using containers, choose a large pot with a diameter of 40cm or more. Dig in some organic matter when planting to improve the soil.
- Watering: Water in thoroughly after planting. Raspberries prefer moist soil, so ensure they are well-watered throughout summer, especially during dry periods.
- Support: Secure the canes to supports as they grow to keep them tidy and protected.
- Pest & Disease: This variety has excellent disease resistance. To protect your delicious fruit from birds, cover the plants with a fruit net.
- Pruning: 'Polka' is an autumn-fruiting (primocane) variety. In late winter (February), prune all canes that have fruited down to ground level. New canes will emerge in spring to produce that year's crop.
- Feeding: This is not a hungry plant and does not require additional feeding.
