Default Soft fruit against a north dacing wall?


Is it possible to grow things like raspberries on a north facing wall.
A fence has just been put at the bottom of my garden and I'd like
to make use of it.

A fan trained morello cherry is a better bet - ideal for north facing walls.

If it's reasonably light, yes. Most rubi are woodland undershrubs
and will grow and fruit well without direct sun.
