I'm planning on putting out black raspberries (Jewel and Mac black) this spring and was wondering who is the best reputable mail order nursery to get them from ?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated as I've tried to grow them in years past without much luck. I'm going to try raised beds this time as my garden doesn't drain very well.
Thanks for any info

Black Raspberries
Norse Farms has been very good to me.

Since I can only grow Dorman Red the others are just wishful thinking.

You may find some plants locally in a month or so. I've grown Jewel in the past, but never had much size to the berries. They tended to be about the same size as the wild ones. The reds (Heritage) and yellows (Anne) I've grown however were huge.
