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.
