Raspberry root stored in fridge

10 years ago

Hi everyone, I purchased three raspberry canes about three weeks ago, and I have another 21 days to wait before I'm able to plant them where they are going to be… So far, I've had them stored in the crisper section of my refrigerator in a plastic bag, separate from vegetables… Will they be ok there til July?

Probably yes. However the ethylene given off by ripening fruit can damage plants. Your plants may be protected from that if tightly sealed.
