Everbearing raspberry bush 'Encore'
FamilyRosaceae
Rubus idaeus ‘Encore’ is a late summer raspberry known for extending the harvest season with excellent quality fruit. This vigorous, bushy raspberry produces large, bright red, firm, juicy, and sweet raspberries, ideal for fresh consumption, baking, and processing. Its abundant fruiting occurs in late summer on last year's canes, taking over from earlier varieties. Its dense green foliage accompanies robust growth and attracts pollinators to the vegetable garden, contributing to the garden's biodiversity. Suitable for row cultivation, fruit hedges, or edible beds, Rubus idaeus ‘Encore’ is appealing for its high yield, good fruit retention, and reliability in cool climates.
