Latham Red Raspberry Plugs: Rubus 3-6" Live Plants (3 Pack)

Grow delicious, deep-red fruit right in your backyard with this 3-Pack of Latham Red Raspberry Starter Plugs (Rubus idaeus)!
The Latham red raspberry is a historic, cold-hardy, summer-bearing (floricane) variety renowned for producing large, sweet, firm berries that are exceptional for fresh eating, freezing, and making preserves. Reaching a mature height of 4 to 6 feet with a spread of 2 to 3 feet, its sturdy, high-yielding canes thrive across a wide range of growing conditions and survive harsh winter freezes where other berries fail.
This self-fertile favorite is ideal for planting along garden fences, building an edible hedge, or expanding your home berry patch!

You will receive three (3) healthy, live Latham Red Raspberry starter plugs (measuring 3–6 inches tall). Please note that these plants ship bare root with no pot or foliage while prepped to guarantee a safe, lightweight, and highly successful transplanting process.

Tips If You Must Plant in August (Late Summer Care):
Soak the Roots: Soak the bare roots in a bucket of water for a few hours before planting.
