Raspberry 'Boyne'

FamilyRosaceae

Rubus idaeus ‘Boyne’, known as ‘Boyne’ red raspberry, is a deciduous fruit shrub with an upright, compact habit, particularly valued for its great hardiness and reliability in cold climates. A single-cropping, early-season variety, it produces an abundant and uniform harvest in early summer. Very popular in northern regions, it combines vigor, resistance, and ease of cultivation. Its white spring blossoms attract pollinators and promote good fruit set. Its dense green foliage supports sturdy canes suitable for row cultivation or as a fruit hedge. Rubus idaeus ‘Boyne’ prefers full sun exposure and rich, well-drained soil. Ideal for home processing, it remains a safe bet in nurseries for northern gardens.
