Total

Each variety has individual characteristics and growing characteristics. Thanks to the detailed descriptions with photos, you can choose a suitable type of raspberry for growing in the Moscow Region and central Russia, taking into account the purpose of growing raspberries.

Raspberries are a popular and healthy summer berry. Old adapted varieties in Central Russia are unpretentious and viable. On the site, raspberries can even behave aggressively, capturing new territories and expanding the borders of raspberries. This behavior is due to the characteristics of the varieties and lack of care. The best varieties of raspberries according to reviews of gardeners from different regions are presented in our rating.

Raspberry varieties are conditionally divided into 4 groups: large fruited, classic, repair  and standard  (tree-like).

Large raspberry  inherited a high mass of berries and low winter hardiness from parental forms. When growing large-fruited raspberry varieties in the middle lane, shoots for the winter are bent and covered. To obtain large berries, you will need to create the appropriate conditions: the introduction of organic matter, top dressing, prevention from diseases and pests, regular watering. On poor soils you can’t get a good harvest, and in a drought the berries just dry on the branches. The most striking representative of the group, having many fans and grown even in the Urals, is the Beauty of Russia.

Stacked Raspberries, despite the growing interest in the group, remains exotic in Russian gardens. These raspberry varieties are distinguished by decorativeness, ease of picking berries, disease resistance and high productivity (due to active lateral branching). "Raspberry tree" does not need support, the crown retains its shape under the weight of berries. In this case, the varieties show good frost resistance and unpretentiousness in the care. The formation consists in pinching the tops of the shoots by 10 - 15 cm. In this group, the Tarusa variety is isolated.

Classic raspberries  fruiting on the shoots of last year, so the ripening of berries begins early: from late June to July. Bushes overwinter with long shoots, which in the conditions of the Moscow region are recommended to be covered.

Repair raspberries  bears fruit both on last year's and young shoots. But experienced gardeners recommend cutting all the shoots in winter and getting one late crop at a young growth. In this case, the yield will be higher, and the size of the berries will be larger. Fruit bearing period for repairing varieties: from late July to September-October. Many varieties of remont raspberries are well suited for the suburbs. Their advantages: winter without problems, do not suffer from pests, superior in yield.

Choosing the best raspberry variety also depends on the purpose of bookmarking raspberries: for home-use dessert berries or selling a marketable crop. Commercial varieties are characterized by high productivity, transportability and attractiveness of berries, but inferior in taste.

We are used to distinguishing a delicious berry from a tasteless berry, but this is not enough for gardening. The best varieties of raspberries take root well and delight with an excellent harvest, if you work with them correctly, based on expert opinions and their recommendations. If you are going to grow this culture, you need to at least in general terms understand the variety of varieties

Large raspberry varieties

Representatives of large-fruited species are very popular due to the fact that they have one of the highest yields among all types of this crop. These include

• Beauty of Russia;
• Mirage;
• Maroseyka;
• Aboriginal.

Beauty of Russia

This shrub is medium tall, 1.6 meters high. Compact, forming 10 shoots and 5 root offspring. There is a small edge on the stems, but there are no thorns. They have strong fruiting branches with many whiskers that form up to 20 fruits. The leaves are large, embossed with a dark green color and a slight sheen. Large flowers, like berries. The fruits have the shape of a cone with a homogeneous structure, sweet taste, pleasant aroma and weight of 4 to 12 g. The fruiting period is stretched, and the number of harvests varies from 4 to 5. One bush gives 4.5 kg of the crop, and a hectare up to 19 tons.

Landing Features:

1. You need to choose a place with good lighting and non-greasy soil.
2. You can plant in the spring - from April to May, and autumn - from September to October.
3. Seedlings must have a developed root system.
4. The optimal distance between rows of seedlings is from 1.5 to 2 m.
5. Way of landing: trench. The trenches begin to dig 3-4 weeks before planting, so you need to think in advance about the number of rows on the plantation, based on the distance between the seedlings and the amount of planting material.

Plant Care:

1. Avoid thickening because this will lead to a deterioration in protective functions and a decrease in disease resistance. In the first year of life, the strongest shoots leave (about 6-7 pieces).
2. Use trellis when the height is 80 cm. This design improves ventilation and lightness. The tops are attached to it, and the lower branches are tied to the base to prevent the possibility of infection by the fungus.
3. After the opening of the first buds (2nd year), cut almost all the stems under the root, except for the healthiest and strongest (from 10 to 12 pcs. Per meter), cut the annual fruiting stems by 10-15 cm.
4. With the onset of autumn, cut off all biennial and weak annual shoots. On the entire surface of the old stems there is a matured bark.
5. Periodically water the planted plant, loosen the soil.

Before planting, you should increase the quality characteristics of the soil. For this, it is better to use organic fertilizers - 10 kg per 1 sq. Km. meter. If work is planned in the spring, then fertilizers must be added in the fall. At the same time, the use of fresh manure is not recommended, since it may contain larvae of pests and potential sources of various diseases.

Benefits:

• great taste and aroma;
• high productivity;
• mid-season;
• relatively good transportability;
• high level of drought and frost resistance: from -20 to -25 ° C, and with plenty of snow from -30 to -35 ° C.

Disadvantages:

• sensitivity to brown spotting, spotty mosaic, chlorosis and gray rot during the summer season;
• weak keeping quality.

Raspberry classification

Before you consider the most valuable and interesting varieties of raspberries with photos and descriptions, we suggest understanding their diversity and classification. This will help to choose planting material based on household needs, personal preferences, and climatic characteristics of the region.

By method of fruiting

Depending on which shoots - the first or second year of vegetation - the fruits appear, distinguish between summer and repair raspberries.

Summer variety  has a two-year development cycle. In the first year of vegetation in the axils of the leaves there is a laying of flower buds, in the second - fruit branches grow from them. The plant begins to bear fruit in June, stretching the yield of the crop for 1–1.5 months. The main problem, especially in regions with cold winters, is to keep the first-year shoots from freezing.

On the lips of summer harvested raspberry varieties - Gusar, Maroseyka, Lashka, Octavia, Glen Ampl, Kaliningrad.

Unlike summer, the full cycle of vegetation from the growth of a young shoot to fruiting takes place in one year. If you keep the sprouting branches, next year it will give two crops - in the summer on old and in the autumn on young shoots. In the middle lane, it is recommended to grow it in an annual culture, getting one, but a plentiful crop. Repairing cultivars are characterized by large-fruited, high productivity, are subject to complete pruning for the winter, so they do not need shelter.

The most popular repair varieties: Hercules, Daughter of Hercules, Eurasia, Regiment, Polana, Ruby necklace, Indian summer, Penguin.
