Raspberry, Bogong

Bogong Raspberry is a reliable Australian-bred raspberry, developed for warmer regions with mild winters. It produces heavy crops of large, sweet, bright-red berries through summer and autumn. Like Autumn Bliss, Bogong fruits on first-year canes (primocanes), meaning simple pruning and a quick harvest cycle. Its upright, sturdy growth makes it well-suited to both pots and garden beds in Perth.

Features:

Ideal prune height: 1–1.5 m

pH range: 5.5–6.5

Sun preference: Full sun to part shade

Minimum pot size by year 5: 30 L

Time to fruit: 1 year from cane

Harvest period: Summer to mid-autumn

Notable traits: Very low chill, fruits on new canes, Australian-bred, heavy yields, fewer thorns than older varieties

Plant Bogong in compost-rich, free-draining soil and water well during fruiting. After harvest, simply cut all canes to ground level to reset for the next season. A top-up of organic fertiliser in spring will boost berry production.

Bogong is perfect for warm-climate gardeners wanting fresh, juicy raspberries without the hassle of cold winters. Great for pots, patios, or family gardens. Limited stock available now.
