Advice from our agronomist

Planting Plant in spring or autumn. Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and keep the graft union above soil level. Tie the young plant to a stake, water well and mulch.

Care Water in dry spells, feed in spring and protect the trunk from rodents over winter. Spring pruning keeps the crown tidy and boosts yield. A second variety nearby improves cropping.

Use Suits a berry garden or mixed hedge. Plant several bushes together for a better harvest. The berries are rich in vitamin C.
