I've got a very large raspberry patch. Every spring I prune the plants back to about 3 feet, clean out the old wood, and clear out those that have invaded the path between the rows. I always get a lovely crop of raspberries, and sometimes if we have a really mild fall, I get a second crop in the fall.
Many raspberries have escaped under the fence and are growing totally untended in sort of a "waste" space between the shed and the fench - behind some shrubs. Here's the thing - the "wild" raspberries are bigger than the tended raspberries.
What gives with that?
Do you prune your raspberries?
