I have planted raspberry plants.  They are starting to spread, but the new ones coming up look like raspberry plants but they never have berries on them...are they mock plants?
Thanks
Debbie

Hi Debbie, welcome to Permies!

Most raspberry canes blossom and fruit on canes that are two years old. The ones you see growing now this first year are called primocanes, and next year they will become floricanes, blossoming and bearing fruit. They will also grow new primocanes next year too. To manage raspberry canes and help keep them productive, at the end of the second year during winter, prune and remove the floricanes that fruited that season at ground level, leaving just the primocanes from that year.
