The next window of opportunity to plant black raspberries would be the coming fall.

You can pre-order plants for fall planting anytime.

We’ll be shipping plants around November when they’ll become dormant. Fall planting is a better time for black raspberries to be transplanted. The way that it’ll work is that if you pre-order plants right now, we’ll take the payment and we’ll reserve plants for you for the fall shipping. As soon as our plants are asleep for the winter, you’ll be receiving them to be transplanted in to their new home.
