These bright red berries are native to sub-arctic regions enjoying cool, acid soils. The sharp fruits, which are born in profusion on healthy plants, are highly nutritious (and delicious)! Easy to grow on damp, peaty soils, they are relatively free of diseases and crop well when protected from birds.

Bareroot berries | January to March

Nearly all of our berries are sold in bareroot from January to March. We find this is the best way to get your berries started since they're dormant until the weather warms up in spring.

Potted berries | all year round

Some berries are notoriously difficult to get started from bareroot (ahem, raspberries), as many gardeners will have experienced. Because of this, we also stock a large selection of potted berries in spring and throughout the rest of the year. The best selection, and the best time to plant in order to have ripe summer berries the same year, is in spring (April to June). Outside of these times our selection can be limited.
