One of the best raspberry introductions in recent years! This superb primocane variety from the latest Polish breeding will produce up to double the yield of Autumn Bliss (one of its parents). Once established, each plant can produce up to 2.5kg of large, deep-red berries with an exceptionally sweet taste which has meant Polka has been the winner of the autumn Kent Fruit Show for its flavour and fruit quality for the past three years.
As well as beating Autumn Bliss on flavour, Polka will crop at least 2 weeks earlier and will be ready to harvest from late July through to October.
These vigorous, virtually spine-free plants show good disease resistance and will even produce a good crop in gardens with less desirable soils, all of which combine to make Polka one of the best raspberry introductions in recent years.
