Raspberry tree - an expensive mistake in the garden. Uproot and forget

Welcome gardeners!

It seems like every year at stores that sell seedlings appear "What's New sensation". Four years ago my friend bought into advertising and ordered a "raspberry tree":

What is this miracle? The seller promised:

• Amazing simplicity and the survival rate of almost all climatic zones of Russia.
• The unique shape of a tree - long barrel, ending a lush canopy of leaves. By design, the tree should be well illuminated by the sun's rays and did not give seedlings. And how convenient to collect!
• Remontant - fruiting from June to September inclusive.
• "Extremely sweet, fragrant, large and further down the list berries, decaying clusters ".
• And as a highlight on the cake - an unprecedented productivity. Attention. 12 kg from the bush for the season!

My friend, in the past ordered the bulbs from the Chinese site of "blue daffodils", of course hastened to pay the miracle sapling. Statement on the joy and neighbors - the envy. And, of course, the innovation of domestic breeding disappointed woman.

But first things first.

What is a "raspberry tree"

"Raspberry tree" is now called not a special kind or raspberry cultivar. It's simple cultivation method (formation) on raspberry shtambe. And theoretically grow shtamb with spreading crown can be of any variety - the main thing to know the technology!

A cunning salesmen disguised as a sapling "raspberry tree" just sell seedlings varieties more suitable for the formation of the trunk - for example, with a sturdy timber.

The most famous of them - "Tarusa". By the way. he was already 10-15 years, there really is. But enterprising marketers got to its exceptional properties only recently. Hence the excitement. By the way, my friend came just this sort of - it was written on the label in the parcel.

And the growth in "Tarusa", of course, is increasing. But this is, oh no means all!

💎 stam raspberry remontant demonstrates the true and best quality berries only when a combination of two conditions: good lighting and a warm summer. For example, in the Kuban it can and will produce large fragrant fruit.

And my girlfriend (Pskov region) the crop was not uncommon. In the cool summer berries were small, but the taste - malovyrazitelnoe. Simple grandmother grade udelal "Tarusa".

💎 12 kg from a bush - a pack of lies. Official figures "Tarusa" - 4-5 kg ​​per year. That is, the dealers exaggerated yields 3 times! And this is chutzpah.

Of course, my friend did not know the intricacies of the formation shtambovoy raspberries and its "tree" has grown a simple bush. Apparently unable to withstand the bad weather in Pskov, self-destructed (dried up) and this autumn was officially uprooted.

I'd addBetter not to chase the beautiful pictures and large figures. It is better to choose a variety that is suitable for the climate of the region. Well, if much want, then you can try to grow shtambikom. And you met with raspberry little tree? What are the views of this miracle? At least someone is brought up and lived up to expectations?
