    Hi guys

    I've got 2 loganberries to go in was going to put them in before the frosts and snow but they beat me to it. My question is when is the best time to pop them in the ground? I know i'm not going to get any fruit from them this year. Just want some suggestions.

    If they are in pots as opposed to bare roots, I would wait now until the soil is a lot warmer. Keep the pots cool but frost free if you can. They are fairly tough plants.

    They are deciduous, so they ought to lose their leaves in winter. As long as the buds are safe then there is no problem.
