Fabulous information and gardening hints.

My favourite that I'm growing is Boysenberry. It's a heavy cropper and it's easy to control as it grows from the one spot that spreads tentacles out like an octopus. If the vine touches ground it will grow roots and start growing from there, but it's easy to control. The thorns are plenty but they are short and because they are close together it makes touching the vines sometimes possible with your bare hands (but gloves are recommended). You must net them. Once the fruit is fully ripe they are super sweet and lose most of their tartness.

Hi. I thoroughly enjoyed your video. So inspiring. Thank you.

I love watching your shows. All the content and your voice is amazing. My only wish is that you start doing podcasts too so I can listen to them at work & b4 sleep ❤️

I can’t thank you enough for sharing the information about white fruits not being seen by birds. Will definitely give it a try

Thanks so much! We're full of lazy gardening tips & hacks 😅💚

I made a huge mistake by planting Ever-bearing Mulberry in my yard. It's messy and laborious to harvest so I hardly ever. I will just plant another type of mulberry that I can be happy with. Thank you for this video.

Amazing! I'm planning my berry patch right now. Thanks for the wonderful info.

Awesome video - you’ve leveled up Jian! Keep the great content coming

Thank you Sasa, glad you enjoyed it x

wow, I really loved the video, good inspiration, watching from South Africa

Those yellow raspberries are the best. My one yellow plant produced more than my Nootka, Chilcotin and Willamette raspberries combined. They taste amazing too!

I just added king white mulberry, white currant and yellow raspberry to my fruit forest based on this video. 😊 Excited to see what they taste like.

I love this video and have watched it over and over again! I have now secured two heritage raspberry plants in Adelaide. I’d love to get a better sense of the structure of your raspberry arch. Your plant is so huge that it’s hard to see!

Warm greetings from Indonesia. Thank you for sharing valuable information about the berries. Would you recommend any of these varieties for lowlands in tropical country ? Many thanks.

Really happy about finding your channel, great content. Keep up the great work.

Thanks very much David 💚

Or be like me. I work in Melbourne but live an hour away in the country and snoop around local rivers where there's so many blackberries I eat until my guts can't handle it. And discover that the next morning. Badly scratches up your hands, even mine that are rough and think skinned. But it's worth it.

so beautiful! thanks for all the great advice

Beautiful fruits call for beautiful music. Other than that, yes it's a like, you have every right to be proud of how your ff is producing. Good videography

Thank you, I really enjoyed that information! Looking forward to planting some of these in the future!

Hi Jian, great video thanks. I also live in Melbourne. Where can you purchase the mulberry tree you have from ? I would love to grow one of those.

Nice video, full of great information

I love your videos you've inspired me so much I have all of these except for the mulberry which I have on my wish list I did have one but it didn't make it when I was bedridden for 3 years before my spine surgery poor thing but the fruit is superb that's for sure!!! I'm in south east Queensland have a wonderful day sweety!!!

Hi Jian would you mind doing a video on how you have planted and how you manage your golden raspberries. I'm confused how they will grow in the garden. Atm I have mine in a pot but I'd like to put them in the ground but I only have a tiny space so hoping I do it right. Your youngberries also look like yours are growing over the fence in some parts of the video, and I'd love to do that also. Thank you so much!!

Interesting you have a bird issue. We have a front fence of brambles for our food forest (red, yellow, purple raspberries, blackberries and the hybrids) and we lose a few here and there but we were still getting 2 punnets a day up until a few weeks ago. I will add you need to try Saskatoon or Jubeberries, and midyim berries (Aussie native) they are amazing.

Hi. I just bought a golden raspberry from Bunnings. They look thornless, can you confirm ? Are they invasive ? Thanks for the video

Very nice raspberry arch! How do you maintain/cut your plants after fruiting in the winter? I know some people cut them near the ground to grow more primocanes. It's hard to tell in your video but it looks like you have a mix of young and old? Any tips welcome as I would love to make an arch like that 😊

Thank you! How you prune cane berries depends on the variety. The Heritage is an ever-bearing so the technique with this variety is to only cut back brown Floricanes (second year canes) after fruiting in autumn and tie in green Primocanes (first year canes) which will fruit again next year. So at the moment in summer you don't do anything, you wait until autumn fruiting has finished before doing any pruning. We usually prune in winter when the leaves have dropped and it's really easy to see the canes. We will have a detailed guide on cane berry pruning and a nice table summary on our website soon. Cheers

Hi, your post is so inspiring that I want to start my home garden. Can you please advice me from where to buy fruit trees

If you are in Melbourne, BAAG and CERES are good nurseries.

Do golden raspberries have thorns?

Youngberries and white currants are they always available for sale in nurseries?ü

Is that only 1 or 2 seasons of growth on the Heritage? They look like 2 metre canes. Quite impressive! I've also planted Heritage & Bogong here in Melbourne last winter, they are tinny compared to yours but already gave a modest crop. Slightly scared what they'll do next spring after seeing yours.

Thanks Pete, this is its first season in this spot, last winter it was a baby, barely 20cm in size! They are fast growers in the right conditions. Be prepared for them to take over soon!! 💚💚

I don't understand why YTrs ask me to like and sub when I haven't seen it? Just saying 🙂

Shut down on the noise, it’s just too much. We love the video, and info. Thanks .
