About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
‚Goldtraube’ is a proven old selection that has been a staple in DACH gardens for generations. It grows very robust and vigorous, and is exceptionally frost‑hard and low‑maintenance. The berries ripen unevenly over a long period, so you can harvest them repeatedly over weeks. Self‑fertile, a second variety increases yield.
Strong, slightly bitter blueberry aroma with balanced sweetness and acidity, the typical nostalgic flavor. Ideal for jam, juice, and cakes.
