Red Latham Raspberries
Cold Hardy, Disease Resistant

  (2 customer reviews)

Gurney's ChoiceRed Latham Raspberries are a reliable favorite! Premium-quality berries have glowing pure red color, wonderfully sweet flavor. Firm, luscious fruit processes perfectly for jams and jellies. Self pollinating.

At the supermarket, a handful of raspberries or blackberries can cost $5 or more. But why pay those premium prices when you can harvest baskets of these flavor-filled berries for fresh-eating, jams and desserts right from you own backyard? For easiest harvest and to reduce the risk of fungal disease, provide some types of support for the canes. A simple wire trellis set between posts often adequate. Cut spent canes to the ground after they finish fruiting.

No. 1, 1-yr. plants. Zones 3-8.

Very good
Reviewed By: Jill (Osmond, Nebraska)
These plants took about 2-3 years to really get going but they spread aggressively and produce well with minimal care. The berries aren't as big or tasty as Caroline, but these produce in the summer (well before Caroline) and the kids love them. The berries hold together well during picking and washing without making a big mess. I have had no insect or disease problems and I really do not fuss much over the patch--only fertilizing every couple of years and watering if we have drought conditions.

Grow like wild-fire respberries
Reviewed By: Carl (N Reading, Ma)
These plants have a slow start, takes three years to establish, and about 30% of the latereal is winter-killed. But beware, my three year old bush send out hundreds of suckers every spring and I have had a hard time clipping if I am going to leave about six canes as per instruction enclosed with order. Also my plants will bear fruit on both new and one year old cane.
