Wow, that looks... Organized. Our raspberries are everywhere

I cut the errant shoots every few days I’ve found em 16 feet to the right in my rose bush even.

I'm tempted to plant it in my front lawn, just so I don't have to mow anymore

I’ve heard mowing raspberries depending on the variety can be beneficial every few years.

The ones that pop up in my grass I leave until mowing unless they start getting big, then I trim it at ground level.

Ok so I just bought a raspberry bush and the recommendation on it was to plant it in the middle of the yard so it gets caught up in the lawn mower to trim it back so this is a apparently a popular strategy.

I threw down wild flowers + clover and have let it go crazy.

I am thinking I maybe should have gone for the creeping thyme or something more productive.

Pretty but a mess.
