blackberry

Got the blackberry in 2018 and it was a 1 or 2 year old bush, possibly two bushes in a 5 gallon pot and named 'babycakes' blackberry, a kind of hybrid.

goji

The goji plant has been here for at least 3 years.

Raspberry was transplanted in onion patch with the poor soil in 2018. It was about 1-2' tall at the end of season.

red_currant

They are one of the few productive plants that grow well in semi-shaded or damp conditions which makes them ideal for those unproductive corners of a garden where other plants struggle. As long as the soil is reasonably good quality and not alkaline they will usually do well. -Growveg

Our red currant was 10" tall in 2018 when we got it.

How to Grow Berries in Containers
Currants heirloomgardener
Simple Layering. Simple layering can be accomplished by bending a low growing, flexible stem to the ground. Cover part of it with soil, leaving the remaining 6 to 12 inches above the soil. Bend the tip into a vertical position and stake in place (Figure 1). ces.ncsu.edu
