Product Description
Outstanding flavor and disease-resistance makes Caroline Raspberry a favorite for organic gardening. This fast-growing raspberry bears big, red berries with an intense, full-bodied, sweet flavor. The fall-bearing variety produces bountiful yields in late summer and fall. The berries are bright and juicy, with delicious, firm flesh that's perfect for making jams and preserves, baked treats and homemade ice cream. The plants are 4-6 feet tall when mature, hardy and perform best in locations that get full sun or partial shade. Caroline Raspberry prefers slightly acidic, sandy loam soils that have good drainage and contain adequate organic matter. A highly adaptable variety, Caroline will do well virtually anywhere, even in the South. It's self-pollinating, tolerant to root rot and has excellent resistance to gray mold. Zones 4-9. PP10412.
