Caroline was released in 1999 by the University of Maryland and has set the standard for everbearing (aka fall bearing), primocane-fruiting raspberry varieties. As it has an everbearing fruiting habit, the plants produce berries on old canes that ripen in early summer, and on new canes that ripen from late summer until frost, which is relatively late compared to some other varieties. Caroline produces tall, rugged canes with vigorous, upright growth, and it "suckers" (spreads) rapidly, quickly enhancing both the size of the bush itself, as well as the potential quantities of harvestable berries. The raspberries have an attractive, deep red color, very good flavor and firmness, and they have demonstrated good freezing qualities, as well.

NOTE: As with all of our other plants and trees, all of our fruit plants are grown in containers outdoors so they are fully rooted and landscape-ready upon arrival.
