- Subject: [NAFEX] K-81-6 Raspberries thriving in zone 3
- Date: Sun, 18 May 2008 08:35:15 -0500
Last year a University of Minnesota professor had an article in the Minnesota Department of Agriculture's IPM monthly magazine. In it he wrote that the K-81-6 Raspberry wouldn't survive in Minnesota. I wrote to the editor asking if Pequot Lakes was still located in Minnesota since K-81-6 is alive and thriving in my orchard. The editor refused to correct the misinformation for what must be obvious reasons (to him).
That is really too bad because K-81-6 produces easy to pick fruit that is nearly twice as large as other summer red raspberries and just slightly smaller than a Boysenberry.
