For the third year in row, my Autumn Bliss raspberries look to giving a
poor crop. They are 9 years old and I think I ought to be planning their
successors.

Things I don't know:

· Is there a "better" autumn fruiting variety available nowadays?
· Best way to kill off the old bed so I can plant out tomatoes next May?


I don't know about "better" than Autumn Bliss because I'm not familiar with
the variety, but late last year we planted a row of "Polka' which I believe
is a fairly new variety, and I have to say that we are highly delighted with
them.
Big fruit, big crop, big taste..... even in it's first season here.
