These everbearing black raspberry 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 other popular varieties. 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 black raspberry plant per year, maximizing your yield and enjoyment.

Further enhancing its appeal, the fall-bearing canes of this black raspberry plant avoid spring frosts and winter injury, significantly reducing the risk of associated diseases. Highly cold-tolerant, these plants thrive across a broad spectrum of climates, specifically in USDA Hardiness Zones 3-8. Enjoy upright, self-supporting canes with only light thorns, making harvesting a more pleasant experience. Immediate shipping ensures you can get your garden started sooner, bringing the joy of fresh, homegrown berries to your table without delay.
