Chilcoten Raspberry Shrub

Raspberry ‘Chilcotin’ is a well known Raspberry for its reliably high yields and long fruiting time. You can expect around four weeks of picking in summer (December) and maybe a bonus, second, smaller harvest in autumn (March) if conditions are good. Plant Raspberry Chilcotin to grow on a trellis. Keep raspberry bushes evenly watered during the summer. Check regularly and water whenever the top inch of soil is dry. Drip irrigation or a soaker hose system is ideal for consistent moisture. Do not water during the winter, though, as that could cause the roots to rot.
