Last year I bought a raspberry which was supposed to be Autumn Gold or
some
such - late fruiting with golden berries.


It fruited this year barely later than the main crops, in July, and the
fruits were large, long and delicious. But purple.


We'd like to grow more canes of this variety at the back of the fruit
cage
(the others are in the main garden) but don't know if we can take
cuttings.
There aren't any runners.


Yet :-)


Give it time...


Yebbut we might not have as much as it has, which is why I want to take
cuttings. If it's possible.

You can chop the rootstock up to produce lots of new plants but you will
need to grow the small bits on before putting them out
