Best of all the berries in size, very large. Very cold hardy and spreads quick, great taste. Not offered often. This is a must buy.

awesome berries
Reviewed By: Tammy (Billings, MO)
We planted 2 of these spring of 2010. This year (June 2011) we're pulling about 2 quarts a week of large flavorful berries with small seeds and most importantly no thorns--kids love to pick 'em! I wish we'd planted more and plan on adding more of these to our patch next spring!
