Title: Message
Although I only have 4 plants, I find the flavor of Caroline primocane-fruiting red raspberry very nice.  Perhaps less of a traditional raspberry flavor, with some very interesting nuances which I find hard to describe. -- Sam Brungardt, St. Paul, Minn. (Zone 4b)

Hi all,

I have a few plants of Fallgold, sort of an accidental bonus since they were supposed to be Heritage.

We like their flavor so much better than Heritage, although the plants are puny and the yields are low.

Does anyone have other berries (Either primocane or floricane fruiters) whose taste is similar to Fallgold?

 

BTW, the Heritage produced an amazingly good floricane crop (just now ending) despite being nipped back in April by a hard freeze.

What are your favorite cultivars?  Flavor comparisons, anyone?

 

Michele Stanton
