Raspberry 'Early Sweet'

FamilyRosaceae

Rubus idaeus ‘Early Sweet’ is a very early summer raspberry known for its early season and delicious fruits. This upright bushy raspberry develops vigorous stems producing an abundance of bright red raspberries, medium in size, firm, juicy and particularly sweet. Its summer fruiting, on the previous year's canes, ensures an early harvest ideal for fresh consumption, jams and freezing. Its bright green foliage supports sustained growth and promotes pollinator activity in the garden. Perfect in rows, as a fruit hedge or in an edible bed, Rubus idaeus ‘Early Sweet’ is attractive for its earliness, good hardiness and reliable production in cool climates.
