A selection of the ten best remontant raspberry varieties for Central Russia

There are quite a lot of raspberry varieties suitable for the conditions of Central Russia. Every gardener will be able to choose both summer and remontant varieties, as well as exotic varieties of yellow, black, and purple raspberries.

Early and mid-ripening varieties that are unpretentious to rainy, cold periods and soil fertility are optimally suited. It is also worth paying attention to heat and frost resistance, but these indicators will not be decisive, as when choosing a variety for the Krasnodar Territory or Siberia. Resistance to diseases and pests is also not of decisive importance, because Most modern varieties have good immunity, and there are more and more means of protection every year.

Feedback from gardeners allows us to form a conventional portrait of a summer resident in the middle zone. Most often, this is an amateur gardener who goes to the site only on weekends, so the varieties should be the least demanding in terms of agricultural technology, have extended fruiting periods, and not fall off when fully ripe. We tried to choose exactly these for you, but what kind of raspberries they will be: summer, remontant, standard, what color and taste - the choice is yours.

Atlant

Atlant is a highly productive remontant variety with large fruits weighing 5.0-6.0 g. The fruits are elongated, conical, dense, and can hang for a long time without falling off the fruit stalk or rotting. The beginning of ripening is the second ten days of August; before frost, the bushes manage to produce more than 70% of the harvest. Berries of universal use, sweet, juicy, fleshy. The variety is resistant to major raspberry diseases. The bushes are medium-sized, slightly spreading with good shoot-forming ability. The thorns are rare, located mainly in the lower part of the shoots. The variety is demanding when it comes to watering. With a lack of moisture, the berries immediately become smaller, as is the case in hot weather. The variety is not suitable for cultivation in the southern regions of the country; the temperate continental climate of central Russia is ideal for it

Detailed description of the Atlant variety

Apricot

Despite its unusual appearance for raspberries, this variety was developed by Russian breeders more than 20 years ago - the patent was received in 1996. Scientists have managed to create a variety that is resistant to the vagaries of weather, cold and recurrent frosts. Apricot raspberries can be grown in any region of the country, including the central zone.

Variety characteristics:

• bush height (subject to agricultural technology) - up to 1.6 m;
• crown shape - slightly spreading;
• the shape of the berries is blunt-conical;
• berry color - yellow, with a slight pink tint;
• The declared yield is up to 2.5 kg per bush.

Apricot raspberries are characterized by extended fruiting. The first berries are harvested from the beginning of August, the last berries can be harvested at the end of October or beginning of November.

The taste of the berries is pleasant, sweet with an apricot aftertaste. In rainy years and with excessive watering, the taste changes to neutral or sour. The berries do not adhere firmly to the fruit stalk and fall off easily. Therefore, the variety is not suitable for growing in dachas if the owners can rarely come.

Raspberries are highly resistant to diseases and pests. Sometimes plantings can be affected by dwarfism, a viral disease.

Morning dew

Morning dew is a large-fruited yellow raspberry variety of Polish selection. It is especially valued for its high yield, unpretentiousness, and transportability. The fruits are large (5-7 g, maximum up to 10 g), spherical, dense, dry with well-knit drupes. The taste of the berries is sweet and sour and is highly dependent on the presence of moisture. During dry periods, the sweetness is lost and the berry becomes sour. Fruiting time when grown in an annual crop: from mid-August until the first frost. The bushes are powerful, consisting of medium-sized shoots (1.5-1.7 m) with hard thorns. Optimal results can be obtained when growing the variety in an annual crop, because, provided that it is cultivated following the example of ordinary garden raspberries, the first summer harvest turns out to be much more sour than the second autumn one.

Today, there are the best varieties of raspberries, which are popular among most gardeners in the country.

The most popular and, perhaps, sustainable varieties of berries include:

• "Hercules". These berries represent large-fruited raspberry varieties and are distinguished by excellent resistance to frost and various diseases. The berries of this raspberry variety are very large in size and weight, about 12 grams. The taste qualities are also not inferior to external characteristics and are distinguished by their pleasant sweet and sour taste.

The harvest from such a berry bush can be harvested throughout almost the entire summer. In addition to their unusual appearance, the berries have a very pleasant aroma and sweet taste. An additional bonus of this variety is that the bushes do not have thorns.
• "Yellow Giant" Tall raspberry bushes of this variety are distinguished by good endurance and average yield. Large sweet berries have a non-standard color and almost no seeds.
• "Dnepr 2". This variety is popular not only because of its excellent external and taste characteristics, but also because of its ability to produce crops twice a year.

This raspberry variety belongs to the remontant species, which, having a significant height, is absolutely easy to care for. A special feature of this variety is its resistance to gray rot, spider mites and other diseases, since the peak of fruiting of the bush occurs quite late - early August. The variety's resistance to frost is reflected in its ability to bear fruit for a very long time. It is because of this feature that such raspberries are called profitable. Large, dense berries of almost scarlet color have a pronounced raspberry aroma, sweet and sour taste and excellent transportability. Many housewives prefer to freeze the fruits of this variety because after defrosting they do not lose their natural shape.
• "Hussar". Like all representatives of the remontant type, this variety is resistant to cold and easily tolerates it. Fruit ripening begins in July. When ripe, the berries are dark red in color. The peculiarity of the variety is that it is very easy to grow; raspberry bushes do not require staking.

The bushes bear fruit annually and mainly in the first ten days of July, so the variety can be called early. The berries have a beautiful canonical shape and a pleasant velvety surface. Since these raspberries are large-fruited, the berries reach from 4 to 12 grams in size. The fruits are dense and do not crumble when picked. The taste is sweet and the aroma is pronounced raspberry. A few seeds are buried in juicy pulp. These raspberries are best consumed fresh, but they are also ideal for processing and canning.
