🌿 Growing and Care Information

Latham raspberries grow best in a sunny location with well-drained soil. The seller recommends a soil pH of approximately 6.5–7.0. Water consistently while the plant establishes, avoid waterlogged soil, and follow the included care instructions for spacing, pruning, and ongoing maintenance.

Because this is a young starter plant, establishment and growth depend on planting time, sunlight, soil, moisture, climate, and care. The seller indicates that fully rooted potted plants can grow quickly, but a particular height or harvest is not guaranteed.

📦 Plant Options and Seasonal Shipping

The seller offers the following plant sizes:

• 6–8 month starter plant: This listing is for one starter plant.

• 1–2 year old potted plant: A separate, more mature option advertised as available in September for fall planting.

The seller states that 1–2 year old potted plants ship on Monday or Tuesday using UPS 3 Day Select. Please check the shipping details for the selected product option, as this listing is for the starter plant.

Plants may arrive with leaves during summer and fall, or dormant during winter and spring. Seasonal appearance varies naturally and does not necessarily indicate a plant health problem.

🍂 Important Fall and Winter Ordering Notice

The seller does not recommend ordering 6–8 month starter plants during fall or winter unless you have a greenhouse or suitable protected growing conditions. Young plants may not have enough time to establish before cold weather arrives.

Although Latham is cold-hardy once established, cold hardiness does not guarantee that a young starter plant will establish successfully just before winter. Consider your local weather and growing setup before ordering.
