Tayberry Buckingham
- Pruning: Plant in an open sunny or lightly shaded spot, 1.5m (5ft) apart in rows 1.5m (5ft) apart. Prefers a moist but well drained fertile soil. Soak the root-ball before planting. Plant in a hole twice the diameter of the root-ball or pot.
- Care: To encourage vigorous new growth, cut all stems back to 30cm (1ft) above ground at planting time. Each winter cut out the dead canes that fruited the previous summer and train in the new canes, tying them onto a support where they will produce their fruiting spurs the following summer. Mulch yearly with well rotted manure or compost. Feed with a high potash feed in February and follow up with a liquid feed during the summer. Water regularly, especially if growing in containers or during prolonged dry spells.
