Seed & start
Perennial
Plant once, returns every year.
Stachi's tip
Raspberries spread underground — plant WITHOUT a root barrier and in 2 years your bed is a raspberry field. Autumn raspberries are easier than summer types: just cut everything to ground level in late winter, they regrow from the roots.
