About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
A modern Polish autumn raspberry that starts earlier than older varieties and delivers large, firm fruits over many weeks. It bears on this year's wood, so you can cut it right back to the ground in late winter, which keeps the stock healthy and the care simple. The fruits are dark red, very aromatic and sweet. A high yielding, protected breeding that ranks among the most dependable autumn raspberries in the home garden.
Large, firm and strongly sweet fruits with a long harvest window, more productive and earlier than ‚Autumn Bliss'.
