Royalty Purple (Floricane) Raspberry
From New York Cornell University. (Cumberland x Newburgh) x (Newburgh x Indian Summer) (PP#5,405) 1982. Late season. Royalty raspberry plant produces HUGE, high-quality with unbelievable flavor purple fruit. Michigan State University calls it " the sweetest purple raspberry available", and it is flavorful enough to eat fresh, or preserve in jams and jellies. Royalty raspberries ripen late in the season and are reddish-purple to dull purple when fully ripe, but it is possible to pick them when they are slightly immature, red berries. This raspberry plant has long, thorny canes and it produces high yields of fruit. Hardiness is acceptable for northern growing areas.
Zones: 4-8.
Size: Gallon

Royalty Purple Raspberry
I received two Royalty Purple Raspberry from Berries Unlimited. They arrived packaged nicely, in a many that prevented damage to the plants. They were good sized, healthy plants, that have leafed out and are showing signs of good vigor. I have done business with and made previous purchases from Berries Unlimited. As a small boutique nursery and garden owner-manager I can highly recommend them!

Received my perfectly shipped, healthy and robust Royalty plant. I always follow the Berries Unlimited planting instructions and tips, so it is doing well, just like all of the many other plants I have purchased and received from this company. I usually purchase new varieties in the spring, but their plants are doing so well that my fruit areas are full! That's awesome. Thank you.
