Raspberry 'Autumn Bliss' – Autumn Fruiting Favourite

'Autumn Bliss' is a reliable, easy-to-grow raspberry variety that produces sweet, flavourful berries from late summer into autumn. Perfect for gardens and allotments, it’s known for its excellent disease resistance and minimal need for support.

Why You'll Love It

  • Produces delicious, high-yield berries in late summer and autumn

  • Low-maintenance and hardy – ideal for beginners

  • Compact and tidy growth – great for smaller gardens

  • Excellent resistance to common raspberry diseases

  • Berries freeze well for year-round use

Planting & Initial Care

  • Location: Choose a sunny position with well-drained soil

  • Spacing: 45–60cm between plants; 1.8m between rows

  • Planting Depth: Ensure the first roots are no more than 5cm below the surface

  • Initial Pruning: Cut canes down to 22cm (9") after planting to encourage new shoots

  • Watering: Water thoroughly when planting and during dry spells, especially in the first year and while fruiting

  • Mulching: Add a 7.5cm (3") layer of mulch to help retain moisture and suppress weeds

Ongoing Care

  • Pruning: Cut all canes to the ground in late winter (February)

  • Feeding: Use a slow-release fertiliser in spring

  • Watering: Maintain consistent moisture, particularly during fruit development

  • Weeding: Remove weeds regularly; mulch helps reduce weed growth

  • Support: Generally self-supporting, but can be lightly staked in exposed or windy areas

Harvesting & Use

  • Season: Produces fruit from late summer into autumn

  • Picking: Harvest berries when dry for best storage and flavour

  • Freezing: Freeze on the day of picking for optimal freshness

Extra Tips

  • For a small early crop, leave a few canes uncut in late winter (may slightly reduce autumn yield)

  • Great for borders, raised beds, and fruit cages

  • Regular mulching improves moisture retention and soil condition

Note
While 'Autumn Bliss' is resilient and easy to care for, regular watering and good soil preparation are key to strong crops and healthy plants.

Bring vibrant colour and flavour to your garden just as summer fades – Raspberry 'Autumn Bliss' is a late-season treat worth the wait 

The plant's growth rate and size will vary depending on planting position & conditions, and bloom, foliage and interest may vary from photo upon delivery, dependent on season.

Delivery Note: Please note that unfortunately we are currently unable to deliver plants to Northern Ireland.
