Description

A new thornless selection with the wonderful flavor of the Marionberry, but with slightly increased cold hardiness and a larger, firmer berry! Vines are very productive, disease resistant and easy to grow and bear for several weeks in late July and August. A new winner for the backyard connoisseur. The berries tend to be uniform in shape, have small seeds, and a milder flavor than other varietals.  This variety is often recommended for home gardens.
