I'm going to the swap, so, if you'll meet me at the swap, you could have a couple. :)

So do these guys get all weedy and obnoxious like blackberry bushes do?

If you keep them in check/trimmed, then no.(they are pretty easy to keep in check/trimmed) They are definitely not as bad as the spiky blackberry bushes.

Thank you Moses and nice to meet you.
It was very thoughtful of you to bring all those bushes.
I am stoked!
BTW
Do you have a gopher problem at all?
We do.
I was wondering if I should put the bushes in gopher baskets.
Plants like roses and artichokes are gopher magnets so we put them in baskets.
Other plants the gophers don't touch.

Nope, no gopher problem here...
I honestly don't know if gophers will eat the raspberry plants, but I'd put them in baskets just to be safe... You can plant a couple without baskets and see what happens? lol

Thanks for the clippings Moses. Is that a tomato cage you are using to help the bush grow also? Also, do we need to cover if we get freze weather (below 33 degreees?)? Live in the east bay and may get some cold nites coming up. Thanks.

Your welcome! :) Yeah, you don't have to put it tho. It should be fine in cold weather.
