Summertime is the season to enjoy fresh and juicy berries, right? If you agree, you need to plant some Latham Raspberries (Rubus idaeus) in your yard this year! These sweet berries will have you shamelessly picking and eating handfuls of raspberries.
Latham Raspberries are not the new kid on the block. This variety has been popular for centuries. In fact, it is one of the oldest cultivated varieties of raspberries. This delightful and useful variety was developed for home gardeners and you-pick berry farms. If you went berry-picking as a kid, there’s a good chance you plucked some of this same variety!
What makes the Latham Raspberry perfect for gardens? It yields huge crops of large berries that burst with juice! When mid-summer hits, be ready. This plant will provide you with abundant picking opportunities and plenty to preserve.
The Latham Raspberry grows best in northern regions where it doesn’t get too hot or humid. This plant stays petite, so it won’t take up more space that you want it to. Just make sure it receives full sun or partial shade and well-drained soil. You can even prune it back right after your harvest by clipping off any weak canes.
As far as how you prepare your raspberries, it’s up to you. With so many choices, it may be difficult to decide. You can create delicious jams or pies with them, eat them fresh, or freeze them for later. You may even want to plant a couple of these wonderful plants to make sure you have enough for smoothies or winter cobblers.
