Raspberry 'Nova'

FamilyRosaceae

Rubus idaeus ‘Nova’, known as the 'Nova' red raspberry, is a deciduous fruit shrub with an upright, vigorous habit, renowned for its excellent hardiness and abundant production. This early variety offers large, firm, sweet, and slightly tart red fruits from early summer, perfect for fresh consumption, freezing, or processing. Its white, melliferous spring blossoms attract pollinators and ensure excellent fruit set. Its bright green, dense, and healthy foliage effectively structures the vegetable garden or fruit hedges. Rubus idaeus ‘Nova’ thrives in full sun in rich, well-drained soil, with regular watering during fruiting. Easy to cultivate and very cold-resistant, it is a reliable choice for northern gardens and edible landscapes.
