If that’s the case then i wouldn’t get it below zone 9 because I’m 8b. It did get down to 11-15 for about a week at night where I’m am. I left it in the front yard which seems colder than the backyard because the backyard citrus that i left exposed to the elements because i ran out of room inside, did fine under my back porch. According to the water i put out to gage temperature in the backyard cause i keep forgetting to buy a thermometer for the back, it doesn’t freeze even when it hit 20 degrees when i leave the lights on lol. However my front yard will freeze. At the usual 32.
All my raspberry plant plugs from last year are alive still and doing pretty good… except Crimson Giant lol
Middle TN zone 7a/7b
Full sun all day
Next to a big hot driveway
Fruits only on floricanes
Thornless
Purchased from Nourse Farms 8+ years ago
Very first blooms of the year on May 1st.
Lets see when it ripens and go from there… along with fruit shape… could be alot of things.
Alternatively and im not trying to be a smart alec… but search your email for the invoice. Alternatively if you deleted it you can call them and ask what you bought then.
I have had to revisit my emails on many occasions myself…
Mine has yet to fruit, so I’m not speaking from first hand experience, but all the on-line nurseries have it listed as everbearing. Hoping it’s everbearing, that’s why I bought it.
I think everbearing does NOT mean fruiting on primocanes (and additionally floricanes of course), which to my knowledge is a trait common only among real raspberries Rubus idaeus cultivars, and very very few new blackberry varieties.
I think everybearing means that the fruit ripen over a period of 8 weeks or more like many blackberry varieties, and unlike regular floricane summer-raspberries which ripen over a period of 4-6 weeks.
Please correct me if I am wrong, but I don‘t think there is any primocane fruiting hybrids
Hi, My information says that Glenco is Floricane fruiting but thornless, which unlike ‘Royalty’ whch is also floricane but thorny. As it happens, I have just bred a thornless primocane fruiting purple raspberry but the fruit quality is not as good as I want it to be. see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jERvF_qs57A
