Enjoy delicious homegrown soft fruit with our Tayberry Plants (Rubus fruticosus × idaeus). A cross between a blackberry and raspberry, tayberries produce large, juicy red-purple fruits with a rich, sweet yet slightly sharp flavour. They're delicious eaten fresh and perfect for jams, crumbles, desserts and homemade preserves.
Choose from Rubus, Buckingham, Medana or Mixed, giving you a choice of these rewarding fruiting plants for your garden or allotment.
Rubus fruticosus × idaeus grows best in a sunny, sheltered position with fertile, well-drained soil. Provide support for the long canes and water regularly while plants become established and when fruits are developing.
Hardy, productive and easy to grow, Tayberry plants are a fantastic choice for anyone looking to enjoy generous crops of tasty homegrown berries.

Watering Water regularly while the plant is establishing, then allow the upper soil to dry slightly between waterings. Established Mediterranean herbs prefer free-draining conditions and generally need less water than leafy crops. Container-grown plants will still need checking frequently during warm, dry weather.
Best Growing Conditions Grow in sun or partial shade in fertile loam, enriched with organic matter where appropriate. Choose an open position with good airflow and enough space for the crop to mature without excessive competition. Protect tender crops from late frost and cold winds, and use greenhouse or sheltered growing conditions where the variety requires extra warmth.
