Are these rasberry plants?

[bluefootedboobie]

I've recently moved to a new house and am sorting out a big overgrown bed. There were a few rasberries in it last summer and I'm assuming it was from these plants which I've dug up and put into pots temporarily. But I'm not sure! There isn't an old, thick stem on any of the plants. Lots of them had an old cane which looked dead so I cut off at the bottom, leaving the individual plants as just one green stem. Lots of them had new shoots coming out of the base.

Before I go to the trouble of digging a bed and buying the bits for the supports etc, could anyone help with a positive ID?

Sorry, meant to post a pic

Congratulations! Yes, those are raspberry canes!

Definitely look like raspberry canes!

Brilliant, thanks. If they're old plants though, shouldn't there be a thicker stem? Also will these fruit this year do you think?

Definitely raspberry canes

They might be autumn fruiting plants like mine. We used to have wild raspberries in a garden at a rented house and they quickly take over like brambles

certainly are, if you may want to move or remove in the future keep them in the pots! They spread everywhere and are a pain to get rid of. I thought id finally got rid of mine last year from the bed where i was planning to plant veg then this weekend up they popped

The canes die off after a year and they grow new ones so you don't get right old thick ones like with brambles.

Look like raspberries to me. They're a bloody weed in my garden.
