Valentina, Raspberry

An early season floricane raspberry from East Malling Research. Valentina is an exceptionally high yielding selection.

The berries are medium to large with a bright and attractive pink-apricot colour.

Flavour is good but the skin is soft and shelf life inadequate for sale to the multiples. Carrying only a few spines, Valentina produces tall upright canes and has excellent pest and disease resistance including to Raspberry Root Rot.

Recommended for amateur and PYO use.
