Double Delight Raspberry

Double Delight Raspberry produces large red berries with a sweet, tangy flavour for late-summer picking. This self-pollinating raspberry needs only one variety for fruit production, making it a convenient choice for a home berry patch.

A primocane-fruiting variety, Double Delight bears fruit on its first year's growth. Cut the canes down in winter or early spring for easier harvesting and to support higher fruit yields. Plant 3 feet apart for convenient fruit collecting in an edible planting or along a shelterbelt.
