The more sun, the better!
If you invite a Tayberry into your garden, you should offer it a place in the sun. The more sunshine it gets, the more the harvest will delight you. A partially shaded place does not have to mean the end. However, the shrub will bloom less there and consequently also bear far less fruit. Incidentally, these not only taste delicious fresh from the bush, but also, for example, as a jam or cake topping. So you can never have enough of it.

Mobile location in the bucket
A Tayberry can also be located in the middle of a terrace or balcony. That becomes through cultivation in a big bucket possible. If the berry plant is in the bucket, its location can also be easily changed if necessary. All Tayberry varieties are suitable for keeping in buckets. But you should know that a Tayberry in a pot will give you more care is required.
