Additional Information: 'Heritage' is a popular everbearing raspberry variety known for its dual harvest—first in the summer and again in the fall. It is valued for its high yields of medium to large, sweet, and slightly tart red berries that are excellent for fresh eating, preserves, and desserts. 'Heritage' is a hardy variety, adapting well to different climates and growing conditions. It is also disease-resistant and produces fruit on both first-year and second-year canes, making it a versatile and reliable choice for home gardens and small-scale production.
