Meadowsweet
Double Delight Raspberry

Meadowsweet gets its name from its sweet fragrance from the creamy white flowers. It is a large upright herbaceous perennial shrub. They bloom in early summer, and with the right conditions may remain throughout the season.

Take care of where you’re planting Meadowsweet as it is known to spread.

Double Delight Raspberry is known for its medium-large berries that have a sweet-tangy taste. They ripen from late summer to early fall, extending the raspberry season. Known for having larger yields, it is suitable for both home gardens and larger commercial projects. The berries are well suited to fresh eating, freezing, baking, and preserves.

Double Delight Raspberry is a primocane-fruiting variety, meaning it produces fruit on first-year canes (the current season’s growth). They are also referred to as ever-bearing or fall-bearing. Cut stalks down each winter or early spring to get higher fruit yields.

Raspberries are self-fertile, meaning they do not require cross-pollination from another variety to produce fruit
