a couple of tips. Full sun (will do resonable well in partial shade if necessary) Well drained, fertile soil high in organic matter. Avoid wet areas and very low locations. Mulch well. Most of the fruit is produced on two and 3 year old canes. Prune very early in spring you are looking to keep 4 or 5 sturdy one, 5 two and 5 three year old canes.
They will thrive for 20 years or more with good care.
