    I am about to buy a couple of raspberry canes for my other half's birthday. As I understand it, I'm not likely to get fruit on summer fruiting canes but wonderd if there was any chance of one or two even, appearing on Autumn canes?:scratch:

    Your expert knowledge gratefully appreciated.

      You may get some on Autumn Fruiting varieties, but I spent the first year concentrating on getting mine established.

      "... to buy a couple of raspberry canes"

      I doubt that a couple will give you much of a meal until they have spread quite a lot.
