Glencoe Raspberry Plants Set – 2 Live Bushes – Edible Berries – Outdoor Plants

Grow Your Own Delicious Raspberries

Bring the joy of fresh, homegrown raspberries to your garden with this set of two live raspberry plants. These plants are known for their excellent flavor and compact, bushy growth habit, making them ideal for both container gardening and traditional garden beds. The unique blend of black and red raspberry genetics results in a delicious and versatile fruit, perfect for snacking, desserts, or preserves. Elevate your gardening experience with these rewarding berry bushes.

These raspberry bushes are perfect for smaller spaces, as each plant forms a multi-stemmed clump and won’t spread aggressively like some other raspberry varieties. For optimal growth, tip prune in the summer to maintain a bushy shape around 30 inches, and remove old canes after they have fruited. These plants are also resistant to Verticillium Wilt, ensuring healthy growth and abundant harvests of your very own raspberry plants.
