I ordered a few of the Summit's for trial along with Polana and the one from Nova Scotia - K 81 6.
The canes of the Summit came a normal foot high and grew to a small bushy plant only about 18+" high. The berries are just starting to ripen.
The amazing thing is that one plant, for example, has over 120 berries on this it's first year. They are a little smaller than my boynes, average flavor, not a remarkable flavor or size like my Autumn Bliss. I don't rely on the size or taste of any fruit on its first year......I am wondering if any of you are growing Summit, Polana, or K 81 6 and can comment.
I am tempted to go with the Summit for being so precocious, but would like others' experience.
I am looking for a replacement for the Bliss as they are just too late for this 95 day season, (their buds are just now forming)
thanks, Del
