About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
A high-yielding summer raspberry, which is especially pleasant to harvest because of its thornless canes. The large, firm fruits ripen from early July and hang visibly on the strong canes. As a summer raspberry it bears on last year's wood; after the harvest you cut the spent canes close to the ground. The aphid resistance helps prevent the spread of viruses. A reliable, low-maintenance standard for the home garden.
Juicy, mildly sweet fruits with a harmonious aroma, less intense than ‚Tulameen’, but very productive.
