Description
Raspberry Heritage is a stunning, highly productive raspberry variety that delivers two abundant harvests per season. Its lush green foliage and strong, upright canes create a fresh, textural presence in the landscape, while clusters of delicate white flowers give way to magnificent, deep red berries. The fruit is satisfyingly sweet with a hint of tartness, making it perfect for fresh eating, jams, desserts, and freezing. As an everbearing variety, Raspberry Heritage produces a light summer crop followed by a larger, showstopping fall harvest, ensuring a long season of delicious enjoyment.

General Care

• Sunlight: Prefers full sun
• Watering: Water regularly after planting to establish strong roots and support fruit production; once established, requires minimal supplemental watering except in prolonged dry periods
• Mulching: Apply a 2–3 inch layer of mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds
• Pruning: For a single large fall crop, cut canes to the ground in late winter; for two harvests, selectively prune to encourage both summer and fall fruiting

With its bold flavor, satisfying texture, and continuous fruiting, Raspberry Heritage is one of the finest choices for adding beauty and productivity to the landscape, offering fresh-picked sweetness season after season.
