About the Author
Beloved Storey author and life-long gardener Louise Riotte passed away in 1998 at the age of 89. She wrote 12 books on gardening, companion planting, and garden lore, among them the ever-popular Carrots Love Tomatoes, which has sold approximately 515,000 copies. Her father taught her to believe in and practice astrology, while her mother was a practicing herbalist. Together they inevitably influenced her life and her books, Roses Love Garlic, Astrological Gardening, Sleeping with a Sunflower, Catfish Ponds & Lily Pads, and her most recent book, Raising Animals by the Moon. Her own line drawings are included in all her books. Before authoring books, Riotte was a ghost writer for Simon & Schuster and for Jerry Baker's radio gardening show, and she wrote a number of articles for Organic Gardening as well. Riotte took pride in her garden near her home in Ardmore, Oklahoma, which her son Eugene helped care for in her later years.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Pretty much everything to grow raspberries and blackberries,
By Michael A. Duvernois (Minneapolis, MN United States) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Berries, Rasp- & Black (Paperback)
It's just a little pamphlet, but it seems to have the collected knowledge of growing raspberries and blackberries in its 30 pages. No frills, but clear, well written, concise, and infinitely wise. If you plan to have a berry patch you should own and read this booklet.

This review is from: Berries, Rasp- & Black (Paperback)
My husband really likes this booklet because it's not intimidating. He's not one to read a thick book. This booklet gives concise and very helpful information about care of your raspberries/blackberries. I reccomend it for anyone starting with these types of berries.

Berries Rasp & Black Very Helpful!,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Berries, Rasp- & Black (Paperback)
There is a lot of detail and sometimes if feels like the procedures for, planting specifically, seemed a little bit over kill, however, all of the information was very useful and helpful. It's better to have more information than not enough. It was easy to read and appears to be easy to reference in the future. Another bonus, it was very affordable! I would definitely recommend this little book!
