Nova

We have both Nova and Encore that produce at about the same time. They are healthy and easy to pick. We make freezer jam and canned pie filling with Clear Jel. We started with three varieties of raspberries and added a fourth from Nourse Farms. They have been reliable producers and a reasonable price. We share all of our varieties with our neighbors and have shared Nourse Farms as our source for plants. Thanks so much!!

After getting 15" of snow on April 15, I was worried having essentially no spring would cause me trouble. And of course I screwed up a bit by throwing a handful of 10-10-10 in on each plant. They bounced back, and even one that I thought was dead sprouted in mid July. I put in two rows of 35', and every plant came up. I even planted a bundle of roots that sprouted - I think I got 28 plants from my order of 25. Plants produced a few berries this year, and I'm pleased with the taste. For a trellis, I used 6" round fence posts sunk in 4', w/2x4 cross posts, and standard 11ga wire..
