Red Raspberries yield second crop in 2004 season in coastal California.
bu James K. Sayre
In early May, 2003, I purchased a half-dozen rooted red Raspberry cuttings at a church rummage sale. I planted them in my backyard garden and they grew nicely. Evidently, they flowered, for I was able to harvest two red Raspberries in early October.
This year they flowered in early April and yielded some nice red Raspberries in late May and early June. I was a little surprised to see a second set of flowers later this summer followed by a second crop of red Raspberries in late September that ave carried on to October 15tj.
Unfortunately, I have no idea of what particular variety of Red Raspberry that I am growing. This has been my first experience growing Raspberries. I have not been able to find any references in literature or on the internet to Raspberries yielding two crops in one calendar year.
End.
