Taste is the reason people buy the Nova Raspberry.
Nova canes have very few spines. As it has a firmer berry, it is commonly planted for commercial plantings where a harvester is used.
The Nova Raspberry gets its name from where it was bred, in Nova Scotia. It was created to survive and thrive in the varying climates of Canada.
The Nova 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.
Nannyberry is a hardy shrub known for attracting wildlife. Its clusters of white flowers and tasty berries are suitable for bees, birds, and other animals.
Nannyberry is also used in urban yards and landscaping. This shrub makes a beautiful ornamental and is small enough to grow underneath power lines. Its berries can be eaten fresh or used in baking and preserves.
Makes a great hedge or privacy screen in an urban yard. Often has great red fall color to complement its spring flowers.
