RESTRAINING RED RASPBERRIES

Red raspberry plants make a wonderful hedge. But their suckering nature has the potential to create tensions with neighbors, of both the human and plant variety. Be sure to isolate their root systems at planting time. Use a plastic underground barrier, at least 12 inches (30 cm) deep. Otherwise the raspberry plants will overtake ornamentals in the vicinity (although peonies are worthy opponents).

Young plants have shallow root systems, so it is important to water them in very well immediately after planting. You should also mulch between the plants and between the rows—read on for details.
