6. Myths About Raspberries
One of the most common myths surrounding the raspberry plant has already been mentioned in several places throughout the article, and that’s the common idea that raspberry plants are either hard to grow or won’t take in certain climates. Both are very far from the truth, and blackberries can thrive in most climates all over the world as long as the conditions are right – and kept that way for as long as possible.
It’s another common myth that you can’t plant raspberries in a pot. This isn’t true, and there are many good reasons why gardeners might prefer them in pots instead. For some climates, pots are just easier to move from one part of the garden to the other – and for some gardeners, it’s easier to get initial growth started in a pot first before transplanting to the ground.
When choosing to plant in pots, ensure that there’s enough drainage and remember to check soil conditions just as you would planting in the ground.
