Raspberries

The raspberry canes are now starting to put out leaves on the 2nd year growth.  The canes that bore fruit last year die and will be pruned away soon.  For the first time since we started the patch it looks like we might not get a very good crop.  Seems like we didn't get many new canes last year, so there won't be many bearing fruit this year.   It's still early, so I may be wrong (I hope), but that would be a big disappointment, because raspberries are the favorite of the Nyhus household, and have been very prolific.
