I keep hearing Heritage Raspberry being recommended and I wonder why.
At one time I grew Autumn Bliss, Dinkum, Polana and Heritage (all
two-crop-per-year raspberries) and Heritage was the poorest performer.
I think Zone 3 is probably too far north for Heritage.
It will usually, but not always, ripen a nice fall crop in Zone 5. Flavor was very good in this location.
