Brambles Playing Possum
Last year, we planted three rasberry bushes in this box. After the frigid winter, it looked like they were all dead, so I planted gooseberries and peapods in the same box this year-- plus alpine strawberries, which it turns out are only good for ground cover.
Surprise, surprise: the rasberries came back to life, and in a big way. Now this box looks a lot like a jungle. I won't plant peapods here next year, and I'm going to dig out the strawberries and try to transplant to somewhere where we need ground cover. As for the rasberries and gooseberries, they're just going to have to fight it out.
