USDA Hardiness Zones
A hardiness zone is a geographic area defined as having a certain average annual minimum temperature, a factor relevant to the survival of many plants. In some systems other statistics are included in the calculations. The original and most widely used system, developed by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) as a rough guide for landscaping and gardening, defines 13 zones by long-term average annual extreme minimum temperatures. It has been adapted by and to other countries (such as Canada) in various forms. A plant may be described as "hardy to zone 10": this means that the plant can withstand a minimum temperature of −1.1 to 4.4 °C (30 to 40 °F).

More Information
After planting bare-root canes, prune back to about 2 inches above the ground. This is a seriously important step that encourages the roots to send up strong new growth. The new growth may emerge from the ground nearby rather than from the original cane. This is normal behavior for a raspberry plant since the root system sends up new shoots.
If you prefer to have just one crop, mow or cut all the canes down in late winter. The plant skips the spring bloom entirely. Flowers emerge only once, in mid-to-late summer on brand-new canes, leading to a massive fall harvest.
