Honeoye Strawberry

Red River Raspberry is a cold hardy and adaptable raspberry. Its berries are smaller than typical raspberries and ripen from August until frost. The berries are firm, ruby red and excellent for eating right from the bush.

Red River 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.

The Honeoye Strawberry is a cold-hardy cultivar that produces large, sweet berries that feature an attractive bright-red color. It blooms with small white flowers and commonly it is a top-selling berry on the market due to its winter hardiness, highly productive crops and self-pollinating nature.

The Honeoye Strawberry is a June Bearing (Short Day) variety, meaning that they typically produce a single, large crop earlier in the season.

The Honoeye Strawberry received the Garden Merit Award of the Royal Horticultural society.
