Hello,

I'd like to plant a couple of tayberry bushes in my garden. For those of
ou not familiar with tayberries (i wasn't until yesterday!), they're a
hybrid of blackberries and raspberries. According to most of the the
information i've found, they can be planted any time from september to
april - eg:

I'd been planning to plant them in the next couple of weeks, but then it
struck me: is there any advantage to doing this over planting them in the
early spring? Indeed, if i leave it until spring, isn't that avoiding the
risk of them getting damaged by frost or waterlogging over winter?

FWIW, i live in London (the original one), where the winter is cold but
never arctic, and autumn and winter are generally pretty wet.

Thanks for any advice,
tom
