Washington Hawthorn vs Coho Raspberry
Rubus idaeus Coho
Crataegus phaenopyrum
NOT AVAILABLE THIS SEASON
ONLY AVAILABLE BY CONTRACT GROW
Coho Raspberry is a high-yielding raspberry that is known for having large, very firm berries. They are bright red with a great flavour. Their firmness allows for easy picking and makes them well suited for freezing. They are one of the last raspberries to ripen, allowing for fresh berries later in the season.
They are named after the Coho Salmon which are known for their bright red colouring and late spawning runs.
The Coho Raspberry is a fast-growing floricane. This means that raspberries will not grow on canes the year they first grow. The mature canes they do grow on, however, produce more berries than primocane varieties.
Washington Hawthorn is an attractive ornamental shrub that is dense enough to plant as a privacy screen. It produces clusters of white blooms in late spring to early summer.
Washington Hawthorn's red berries last throughout winter, bringing squirrels and birds to your property. In the fall, its foliage turns beautiful orange, scarlet, or purple.
One of the most overlooked trees on the prairies. This tree is often used as rootstock, a wildlife attractor, or a boulevard hedge. Give this one a second look.
This species is also known as one of the more salt-tolerant species for those with saline soils.
Please note: this plant is poisonous to dogs.
