The Caroline Raspberry is a premium everbearing variety celebrated for its exceptional flavor, rich aroma, and high productivity. A descendant of the Heritage Raspberry, Caroline produces extra-large, deep red berries with superior sweetness and a classic raspberry taste that’s perfect for fresh eating, freezing, and preserves.
This vigorous, disease-resistant plant thrives in USDA Zones 4–9, producing two crops each year — a light summer harvest on old canes and a heavy fall harvest on new growth. Caroline’s outstanding flavor and extended harvest season make it a top choice for home gardeners and market growers alike.
