Does anybody have any raspberry recommendations for South Central MI? I
have several of each of Heritage (of course), Latham, something called
"Indian Red" (probably a nomen nudem), and Fall Gold (the only good
performer last year, but then again I planted everything last spring). I'm
looking to put in another dozen or so bushes this year. I'm looking for
taste and vigor over yield.
And just my two cents on exotics: A rose is a weed in a potato patch. I
prefer native plantings for my prairie, but I do like a fair number of
non-native plants for food. I would recommend that people look for sterile
cultivars of exotic species, if they are available.
