Rubus idaeus 'Prelude', commonly known as 'Prelude' raspberry, is an early cultivar renowned for its vigor and abundant production starting in early summer. This everbearing raspberry offers a very early first harvest on last year's canes, followed by a second production in late summer on new shoots. Its bright red fruits are medium-sized, firm, juicy, and pleasantly sweet with a refreshing slight acidity. Ideal for fresh consumption, jams, and freezing, it stands out for its hardiness and reliability in cold climates. Its upright habit facilitates cultivation in rows or a small home orchard. Rubus idaeus 'Prelude' prefers rich, well-drained soil and a sunny exposure for optimal yield.
