Abstract

The invention concerns a new and distinct variety of hybrid raspberry, the variety being particularly characterized and distinguished by the early fruiting of both the primocane and floricane crops; the primocanes bearing approximately one half of the total of the combined primocane and floricane crops; the fruit has a bright red color with only a slight tendency to darken or develop a waxy bloom; the drupelets are of substantially uniform size and have only a slight median drupelet groove; the fruit is firm and compact with a ring of tight fitting drupelets at its collar; and even after relatively warm central California coastal winters the floricane budbreak is good. The new variety holds its distinguishing characteristics through succeeding propagations by planting dormant root cuttings, dormant canes and non-dormant root shoot cuttings.
