The best modern raspberries

All gardeners - professionals and amateurs are attracted by the large-fruited, high-yielding raspberry varieties and certainly with a delicious aroma and taste.

In Russia, this can be achieved by observing the rules of planting and care. From the proposed material, you can get acquainted with raspberry varieties with photographs and descriptions that are distinguished by good yield, taste, winter hardiness and resistance to diseases and pests.

You need to know that the planting material is selected taking into account personal preferences, as well as the climatic conditions of a particular area.

Early raspberry varieties

There are many early types of raspberries, it is impossible and unnecessary to pay attention to each of them in one article.

Consider several varieties of frost-resistant, well-established in the middle lane. Of course, the most interesting are high-yielding, large-fruited, resistant to diseases, pests and drought.

Here are brief characteristics of early raspberry varieties with descriptions and photographs: Here are the traditional raspberry varieties - the "raspberry" color. About the ripening time of yellow, black, and remontant varieties - information in the relevant sections of the article.

So:

Bryansk cascade

Medium spreading bushes of medium height also give berries of medium weight - up to 2.5 g of a blunt rounded shape (pictured above).

The variety does not require special care, but the yield is good, with a standard planting scheme - up to 1 kilogram per 1 m2.

Balm

Shoots up to 2 meters high with a waxy bloom, low prickly, berries weighing 2.5-3g, dark shade. Yields a yield of 0.6-0.8 kg per 1m2. The variety is not afraid of spider mites and purple spot.

Novokitaevskaya

The variety was entered in the State Register in 1974, obtained by crossing the varieties Kitaevskaya and Novost Kuzmina. If you pay due attention to Novokitaevskaya raspberries on your site, then the harvest can be raised to 4 kg from one bush. Blunt-pointed berries weighing up to 2.5 g have good consumer qualities.

Meteor

The early variety among the early ones, obtained by crossing the raspberries Kostinbrodskaya and Novost Kuzmina. Berries weighing up to 3g. Harvest from one bush - 1.5-3 kg of sweet and sour fruits. Resistant to raspberry mites and major fungal diseases, and from spider mites requires timely protection.

Mid-season varieties

Gardeners have the same wishes (or requirements) for raspberry varieties of medium ripening periods as for everyone else - high yield, frost resistance, etc.

The average ripening period of raspberries is a rather loose concept, because the same variety can be planted in different climatic conditions - this is, firstly.

Secondly, summer weather in any year can bring its own surprises, which can "shift" the ripening phase of berries according to the "usual" timing.

Thirdly, the agricultural technology used, the wishes and capabilities of the gardener - can also affect the timing of fruiting. In a word, as in the famous funny book - the rescue of drowning people, the work of the drowning people themselves.

While early varieties of raspberries usually satisfy appetite, mid-ripening berries are mostly processed into compotes and jams.

These are the following varieties that provide good yields:

Reward

Tall bushes that do not require garters on trellises yield up to 3 kg of tasty, sweet and sour, blunt-pointed fruits weighing up to 3.5 g; The variety was obtained in the early 70s by crossing raspberries Kolkhoznitsa and Lloyd George, and is still loved by gardeners in the middle lane.

Balm

Ideal berry (2.5-2.8 g) for homemade preparations. Shoots reach a height of 1.8 m, their yield is higher than average - 2.2 kg from a bush. Derived from Newburgh and Rubin Bulgarian varieties. Good winter hardiness. The variety is included in the State Register of most Russian regions.

Zorenka Altai

It is characterized by a sweet-sour taste of berries weighing up to 3 g. A tall, medium-spreading bush does not have a high yield. The originator of the variety is the Siberian Research Institute of Horticulture. The variety is obtained by natural pollination of wild berries and Viking raspberries.

Shy

Erect shoots of low "growth" tolerate frosts well, but react painfully to drought. Conical berries, weighing up to 3 g, dark shade, with a weak aroma, yield 2.2 kg per bush. The "parents" of the Shy ones are the Ottawa and Rubin varieties.

Giant

The name of the variety speaks of large fruits (up to 18 g) and high yield - 5-6 kg of sweet and sour, oblong, dense berries can be removed from the bush. The variety is also called the Pride of Russia, and this is fully justified. In the northern region, it is recommended to cover the shoots for the winter.

Late ripening varieties

Late varieties are good because in a peculiar way they remind of warm summer days.

These varieties completely replace remontant ones, if the gardener does not have an attachment to this type:

Brigantine

It tolerates severe frosts with sufficient snow cover. Good yield for home cultivation - 2.2 kg per plant. The berries are round, slightly conical, weighing up to 3 g, suitable for transportation. The variety was bred by crossing the Sayana and Ottawa varieties.

Mirage

A high-yielding variety, gives 4 kg of berries weighing 5-6 g per bush, tall (up to 2.5 m), medium winter hardy, the stems with a waxy bloom are covered with thorns. High transportability of fruits.

Companion

In the fall, the attentive gardener will give up to 2 kg of dark, blunt-conical, vitamin C-rich berries weighing 2.5 - 3.0 g from one bush. The dense texture of the fruit makes them transportable. There is no wax coating on the shoots, but there are enough thorns.

Repaired plants

The advantage of the remontant type of raspberry is that it is less susceptible to diseases and pests than summer raspberries, and does not require constant chemical treatments. Repaired raspberry varieties have an increased need for sunlight and warm fertile soil. Well-lit areas are desirable for planting a remontant variety; a slight shade can significantly reduce the yield.

The success of growing remontant raspberries can be indicated by the following rule - the more heat and sun, the better. This is especially true for the Leningrad region - a territory with a transitional continental to maritime climate.

For planting raspberries, you need to select places protected by buildings, bushes, trees from cold northern winds.

Before laying the raspberry tree, it will not be superfluous to conduct a competent analysis of the soil in a specific area.

In the North-West of Russia, high-yielding remontant varieties have proven themselves well:

Unattainable

The berries ripen before the start of frost - in mid-September. Their weight is from 3 to 6 g, dark red, uniform, medium density. Fruits with a delicate "raspberry" aroma, few seeds, excellent removability, transportable. The average yield per bush is 2.5-3 kg, but it can be doubled with careful care. Ripening - from early August to mid-September.

Kalashnik

The characteristics of the variety are almost the same as the Inaccessible Raspberry.Plants up to 2 meters high, powerful, spreading, form up to 12 replacement shoots and up to 10 root suckers. Productivity - more than 2 kg of berries weighing 3.5 g;

The yellow Orange miracle also belongs to the remontant varieties, which will be mentioned below.

Yellow raspberry

In the middle lane, the berry is not as popular as the traditional red one, although the cultivation methods are the same as the agricultural techniques of the scarlet's relative. Many gardeners argue that the taste of yellow raspberries is even higher, but as they say: to taste and color. ... This type of raspberry is used in landscape design - the bushes lend themselves well to forming and grow "in moderation."

Advantages:

1. Diet product.
2. Useful for people with allergies.
3. A good combination of sugars and acids.
4. Blanks from yellow raspberries are obtained with excellent color.
5. Yellow berry varieties tolerate cold weather better.
6. This species does not ripen at the same time - the period of fresh consumption is rather long.

There are also disadvantages - low transportability, unsuitability for winemaking and freezing for long-term storage.

Gardeners unanimously call the best varieties of yellow raspberries of the middle lane:

Yellow giant

Fruits weighing up to 3.5 g, high-yielding variety (up to 10 kg per bush), disease-resistant, slightly frost-resistant. Shoots grow up to 2.5 m, in winter they need shelter under the snow.

Orange miracle

Golden autumn

Repaired large-fruited (up to 7g), beautifully shaped, dense, with a delicate raspberry aroma. The name "Golden Autumn"? In the Leningrad region, the autumn harvest from a bush is 2.5-3 kg.

Black varieties

This type of raspberry is less common in the Middle lane due to its dubious frost resistance. However, experienced gardeners claim that by paying a little more attention to black raspberries, they will reward them with a bountiful harvest, much more significant than traditional varieties.

In appearance and description, the berry is similar to a blackberry. It is easy to check which plant it belongs to. If it comes off with a receptacle - a blackberry. The receptacle remained on the bush - raspberries.

Black raspberry bushes are decorative, they are strewn with berries of red, pink, black color during ripening, they serve as an excellent decoration of a garden plot or a flower bed.

Northwest growers prefer the American-bred Cumberland, which looks little different from other black varieties. Its peculiarity is its ability to reproduce vegetatively.

Other recognized middle lane varieties are:

Ember

Early, with firm and sweet pulp, high-yielding, berries weighing 2 g. It tolerates frost well, is not afraid of diseases and insects. Productivity in the range of 1.5 - 2.0 kg per plant;

Bristol

A late variety of black raspberries, considered one of the best varieties, large-fruited, sweet berries, recognized by our gardeners as high-yielding. The disadvantage is that it does not tolerate winter cold.

Raspberry classification

Before considering the most valuable and interesting varieties of raspberries with photos and descriptions, we propose to understand their diversity and classification.This will help you choose planting material based on economic needs, personal preferences, and climatic features of the region.

By the way of fruiting

Depending on which shoots - the first or second year of the growing season - fruits appear, summer and remontant raspberries are distinguished.

Summer variety has a two-year development cycle. In the first year of the growing season, flower buds are laid in the axils of the leaves, in the second, fruit branches grow from them. The plant begins to bear fruit in June, extending the yield by 1–1.5 months. The main problem, especially in regions with cold winters, is to keep the first-year shoots from freezing.

On the lips of summer fruitful varieties of raspberries - Gusar, Maroseyka, Lashka, Octavia, Glen Ample, Kaliningradskaya.

Repair raspberry, in contrast to the summer, the full growing cycle from regrowth of a young shoot to fruiting takes one year. If you keep the fertile branches, the next year it will give two harvests - in the summer on the old and in the fall on the young shoots. In the middle lane, it is recommended to grow it in an annual culture, getting one, but a bountiful harvest. Repaired cultivars are large-fruited, high-yielding, subject to complete pruning for the winter, so they do not need shelter.

The most popular remontant varieties: Brilliant, Hercules, Daughter of Hercules, Eurasia, Polka, Polana, Ruby necklace, Indian summer, Penguin.

Repaired Raspberry Ruby Necklace

It is interesting! The old Russian variety Novost Kuzmina, developed at the beginning of the 20th century, still remains the standard of raspberry taste. On its basis, more than a dozen new large-fruited cultivars have been bred, including Indian Summer, Bryansk, Vera, Korallovaya, Malakhovka, Meteor, Solnyshko.

By maturity

The earliest varieties of raspberries begin to ripen in the second half of June, and later remontant ones delight with juicy berries until frost.

• Beglyanka, Vera, Lazarevskaya, Novost Kuzmina, Lashka, Glen Ampl are beginning to mature first.
• The mid-early group includes the varieties Blestyuschaya, Gusar, Maroseyka, Balsam, Yellow giant, Canby.
• They have late ripening periods: Firebird, Golden Autumn, Ruby, Coral, Brigantine, Terenty.

By berry size

Distinguish between traditional and large-fruited varieties of raspberries:

• A common raspberry weighs 2.5–4 g and has a sweet taste. The advantage of traditional varieties is their hardiness and unpretentiousness. They rarely freeze out, grow on the most common soils, and are undemanding to care. And although their harvest is small, it is stable from year to year, the quality of the berries is high. An example is Novosti Kuzmina, Beglyanka, Meteor, Kaliningradskaya.
• Increasingly, gardeners want to grow large-fruited varieties. They have a lot of advantages - large berries up to 15 g with a delicate taste and aroma, high yield, density and transportability. The largest-fruited group includes: Arbat (15-18 g), Daughter of Hercules (up to 15 g), Ruby Necklace (12-14 g), Ruby Giant (up to 11 g), Patricia (up to 14 g), Yellow giant (up to 10 g).

By berry color

In the palette of raspberry berries there are many shades of red, there are yellow-fruited varieties (Beglyanka, Golden Giant, Apricot, Yellow Giant), with an orange color (Orange Miracle) and even black (Cumberland, Litach).

Chokeberry Cumberland
