need a big city location ..

im wondering if its much too late to be planting in your zone .. what will be you highest temps in the next month or so ....

can you rig up some temporary shade to lessen transplant shock???

if you eat the berries.. what difference would it make if the seeds were pollinated by a different plant??? .. you arent going to start new plants with those seeds ... are you???

@ken_adrian Adrian MI cold Z5I have acclimated them in a pot for past few weeks and thinking it may be ok to plant in ground..you are right about the pollination..I just wanted to see 2 variety's of fruits just for fun :) I will not be starting new plants

Is it true that they like partial shade? wondering if the shade from the 10 feet concrete wall would be enough or will it make even hotter next to concrete wall

No. Not true and I've never heard of such a thing. They can tolerate partial shade but grow best in full sun, and is what every site on raspberries say. The more shade the smaller and fewer berries you will get and I have proof from experience.

30 years ago I had a nice patch of heavy producing raspberries along a line of small trees. As the trees grew and started to partially shade the raspberry plants production level dropped off year after year in a direct relationship to the shade level. I wanted the trees so relocated my raspberry patch.

You can plant them now, I mean what the heck are you going to do with them if you don't plant them. New transplants won't tolerate drought well and will need watered often compared to established plants, and what I had to do.
