Raspberry in a Zone 10 season
Zone 10 gives about 318 frost-free days. Raspberry needs roughly 120 days from transplant. That leaves about 198 days of slack, so there is room for a late start or a second planting.
How to grow raspberries
Plant canes in the cool part of the year, once the soil is workable, and give them a trellis. Raspberries need some winter chill and struggle in hot summers, so they suit cool climates best. Everbearing types can fruit the first autumn.
