Soak the roots for approx. 2 hrs before planting and water well after planting and for the next few weeks.

Himbeere Meeker likes to be constantly moist, but not wet. Do not use any stimulants, fertiliser or bonemeal at planting time as such products will 'burn' any new root growth. During the active growing season an occasional feed or a light top dress with a base fertiliser will prove beneficial.
