Ohio Treasure Everbearing Black Raspberry – Your Ticket to Abundant Harvests
Imagine harvesting delicious, richly flavored black raspberries not just once, but multiple times throughout the season! The Everbearing Black Raspberry offers exactly that. This hardy and prolific variety ensures a bountiful supply of fresh berries for u-pick farms, local markets, and home gardeners alike. These medium-sized berries, averaging 2.1 grams each, boast a delightful balance of sweetness and freshness, rivaling leading cultivars.
These plants exhibit remarkable vigor, yielding two crops annually. In most U.S. regions, you can simply mow the plants to the ground after the foliage naturally falls. New stems will emerge in the spring, producing fruit from mid-August through mid-October. Alternatively, if you leave the canes to overwinter, they will produce a late spring crop, ripening alongside the Jewell variety. Expect 1.5 to 2 pounds of fruit each spring or early summer. With both summer and fall harvests, you can easily exceed 3 pounds per plant per year. This Black Raspberry Plant is a great option for anyone.
Further enhancing its appeal, the Ohio’s Treasure’s fall-bearing canes avoid spring frosts and winter injury, reducing the risk of associated diseases. Highly cold-tolerant, these plants thrive in USDA Hardiness Zones 3-8. Enjoy upright, self-supporting canes with only light thorns, and benefit from immediate shipping to get your garden started sooner. The Ohio Treasure Raspberry is a must have.
