Raspberries
Royalty Raspberry Plants
XF138
The most popular purple raspberry and for good reason. Very large fruit can be harvested at a red or deep purple ripeness for two distinctly different tastes. At its red stage, the large, firm, round berries have a true, red raspberry flavor; when fully ripe and dark purple, the taste is very sweet and rich. Extraordinarily vigorous plants exhibit multiple insect resistance including immunity to the raspberry aphid, which transmits mosaic virus. Hardy in zones 4-8.
Raspberries are shipped bare root from mid-March through early May. Order by April 15th for best availability. Complete growing instructions are included with each order.
PLEASE READ: Not available to HI, US Territories or Canada.

"Rubus idaeus: The versatile fruit of the raspberry is a real taste treat whether eaten with your morning cereal, on top of your favorite cheesecake, or maybe best of all, by itself with just a bit of added sugar or stevia. There are two main types of raspberries, everbearing and summer bearing. Heritage and Anne are two of the best tasting everbearing varieties while Royalty is a delectable summer bearing type.
CULTURE: Raspberries grow best with plenty of moisture, but in well drained soil. Take special care in preparing the bed prior to planting by adding lots of organic matter. They do not tolerate poor quality soil or weeds, and prefer slightly alkaline soil. Space plants 3-5 feet apart and rows 3-5 feet apart. Complete growing instructions are included with each order.
PESTS & DISEASES: Generally free of pests and diseases. If birds are eating too many berries, we recommend using BirdBlock Protective Netting.
