Nursery contributed plant descriptions

The juiciest raspberry you will ever meet! Medium, dark-red, sweet berries come in very heavy harvests in June, perfect for jelly makers and freezing! These desirable vines are grown commercially as well as by home gardeners; give the long 6-10' canes plenty of room to spread. Snow-white flowers in spring are pretty and good for the bees. Prune old canes of this variety to the ground in very-early spring. S/M
