Described is a new and distinct fall bearing red raspberry variety named `PS-1049` which is capable of producing fruit on first year primocanes, and both floricanes and primocanes in subsequent years.

The fruit is of excellent quality adapted well to the fresh fruit market with only a slight tendency to darken after harvest. The plant is vigorous with dense foliage and many stout thorns.
