I planted one last spring and it hardly grew at all - certainly didn't
fruit.

If it doesn't do better this year I'll be complaining :-(


Mine took two seasons. I planted a load in spring 2006, and got two
crops in 2007. I'm planting 18 more canes this year and don't expect any
fruit from them till next year.

Nah can't be yorks - a true yorkshire person would do as mary did - plant
1 and wait for it to take over :-) I planted 1 Autumn bliss and 1 Fall
Gold 15 years ago, and have a very large bed, and have to pull up the
invaders from the neighbouring veg beds


I'm in Wet Yorks, but I'm not from Wet Yorks! I did think about just
letting the canes take over but I want the fruit faster than that!
