Raspberry 'Caroline', Red Raspberry 'Caroline'
An old favorite, Rubus idaeus ‘Caroline’ (Everbearing Raspberry) is a fall-fruiting cultivar producing high yields of large, highly flavored, red raspberries which are perfect for fresh eating or preserves. This upright, self-fruitful, thorny shrub has a shorter harvest season than most, producing berries for about eight weeks in late summer. This is a University of Maryland variety that has proven to be one of the most productive varieties for the East and Midwest. It is considered to be the new standard for everbearing varieties. ‘Caroline’ is vigorous and more tolerant of root rot and yellow rust than ‘Heritage‘.
