I found a great paper on UAF’s website that has information on raspberries. The beginning talked about where to plant these berries and what areas to grow them in and it made me think of the screen cast including wild stand management. Summer bearing red raspberry cultivars inlcude:
• ‘Boyne’ (cold hardy in Southeast, Southcentral and Interior, not tolerant to varied temperatures, early harvest)
• ‘Canby’ (cold hardy in Southcentral, disease resistant, early harvest)
• ‘Chilliwack’ (hardy in Southeast, some root rot resistance)
• ‘Festival’ (Southcentral, hardy, mid- to late season harvest)
• ‘Haida’ (very cold hardy in Southeast and Southcentral, some resistance to root rot, late harvest)
• ‘Indian Summer’ (hardy in Southcentral, vigorous plant, mid-season harvest)
• ‘Kiska (Interior Alaska cultivar, very cold hardy, lower quality fruit)
• ‘Latham’ (very cold hardy in Southeast, Southcentral and Interior, root rot resistant, long established Minnesota cultivar, early harvest)
• ‘Nova’ (hardy in Southeast and Southcentral, early harvest)
• ‘Prelude’ (very cold hardy in Southcentral, root rot resistant, early harvest)
• ‘Reville’ (cold hardy in Southcentral, mid- to late season harvest)
• ‘Skeena’ (very cold hardy in Southeast, Southcentral or Interior, root rot susceptible, early harvest)
• Titan (hardy, Southcentral only, susceptible to viruses and root rot)
There was also very detailed information about planting raspberries that I thought was very interesting! LF Fairbanks
