Vintage Raspberry is an excellent choice to prolong your raspberry harvest. These self-pollinating plants don’t require a companion, but pairing them with Heritage offers a diverse berry selection throughout the season. Vintage ripens earlier than Heritage and continues bearing fruit into the fall. Its berries are brighter and rounder, contrasting with Heritage’s deeper red fruit. Both deliver exceptional flavor and visual appeal. While raspberries thrive in full sun, they also do well with some shade. Prune canes in early spring and enjoy fruit developing on new growth from summer through fall.
