Raspberry - Caroline - Sale Price: $42.75 The new standard for fall-bearing raspberries! ‘Caroline’ can fend off root rot and yellow rust better than Heritage, and that’s just for starters. Reports of far better flavor and way bigger yields have gotten around, making this raspberry literally the one to pick if you’re planning a new patch. ‘Caroline’ ripens in late August, producing large berries with a pronounced raspberry goodness until fall. In warmer climates you will be able to start picking a little earlier. (Birds dream of ripe raspberries, so net them if you want to keep them.) Raspberries have become increasingly popular for their nutritional and antioxidant properties — plant a patch for eating fresh, freezing, jams, preserves, pies, cobblers and sauce, and be healthier for it! ‘Caroline’ will do best in full sun in slightly acid, fertile, loamy soil. Provide winter protection against the north wind. Zones 4-7. Raspberries are rich source of vitamin C and they are high in manganese. They are also very high in dietary fiber. Eat them for taste and health!

Strawberry - Tristar - Sale Price: $42.75 The Tristar Strawberry, Fragaria x ananassa 'Tristar', is an everbearing strawberry that is sweet and aromatic. The deep red colored skin covers a firm fruit.  The fruit is glossy and has solid interiors. Tristar resists red stele, Verticillium wilt, powdery mildew and leaf scorch. The fall crop will be the heaviest. This is a great strawberry! One of the most important aspects of a healthy strawberry patch is location -- a minimum of six hours of sunlight a day. Although you can get a harvestable crop with as little as six hours of direct sunlight per day, the largest harvests and best quality berries come from those plants that get the advantage of full sun. They are perennial, winter hardy, and will thrive in full sunshine, as long as the soil is fertile and well drained. Healthy plants will produce an abundance of berries for three to four years, after which they should be replaced. Your strawberry bed should have good drainage and be well tilled with rich organic matter such as manure or compost to give your strawberry plants a good start, with amendments again in the spring. Keep your plants well watered until they are established (but don't overdo) and up to fruiting time. Strawberries can also be planted in tubs, containers and hanging baskets. In addition to being low in fat and calories, strawberries are naturally high in fiber, vitamin C, folate, potassium and antioxidants, making them a sweet choice that advances heart health, reduces the risk of certain types of cancer, and gives a boost to total body (and mind) wellness. NOTE: When making a strawberry bed in an established garden, be sure to locate it away from any spot where you have grown peppers, tomatoes, eggplant or potatoes. These plants can harbor verticillium wilt, which is devastating to strawberries.

Grape - Beta - Sale Price: $49.95 The Beta Grape, Vitis 'Beta', has compact clusters of medium-sized berries. Beta is a blue-black grape with good quality fruit for jellies, jams and juices. It is a vigorous grower that is a very heavy, dependable producer. Ripening in mid September, Beta is a small, seeded American grape variety and a woody, deciduous, tendril climbing vine which typically grows 15-20' long unless pruned shorter. It is best grown in deep, loamy, medium moisture, well-drained soils in full sun. This grape tolerates a wide range of soil conditions, but must have good drainage. It needs a location sheltered from winter winds and well removed from frost pockets. Grapes are primarily grown for fruit production in home fruit gardens where they provide good ornamental value: bold summer foliage, showy fruit, some fall color and shaggy, twisted trunking and branching often best seen in winter. Grapes need a good support system like fences, walls, trellises, arbors or other structures. The grape vines can be quite attractive year-round and can provide good cover, screening, or shade to areas around the home. Considered to be a good grape for juices and jellies. The flowers are attractive to bees. Birds love grapes, so be sure to plant some to share.

Dewberry - Austin Dewberry - Sale Price: $42.75 Dewberry Austin, Rubus caesius 'Austin', will require a trellis or staking and is a very popular dewberry in the South because it tolerates heat. Hardy, and not needing much attention, this dewberry produces large, sweet, flavorful fruit; the leaves can be used for a tea; the scrumptious berries are sweet and edible. Dewberries contain carbohydrates, vitamin c and small amounts of vitamins A and B. The Dewberry can be eaten raw, or used to make cobbler, jam, or pie. The Austin Dewberry ripens early and begins to form berries in May, extending for 30-45 days. The plant needs some support, otherwise it will trail on the ground. The ideal berries for picking will be glossy black, with a firm fell, and a little red appearing on any of the lobes. This dewberry derived from plants that were selections from Native American trailing blackberry bushes that were superior to the original parents in size, flavor, and production. Austin adapts well to heat, but is tender in the cold winter climates. The vines should be laid on the ground and protected for the winter with straw or other material, especially in the cold northern climates.

Raspberry - Brandywine Raspberry - Sale Price: $42.75 Raspberry 'Brandywine', Rubus idaeus 'Brandywine, is a true purple berry since it is a cross of red and black raspberries. It has been called the ‘best purple raspberry’. Raspberry Brandywine is a less invasive plant and stays put where it is planted. It is important to trellis Brandywine for support since trellising affects plant growth rate, competition with suckers, harvesting methods, fruit quantity and quality; also helps with disease and insect pest management. It has larger and wider spaced thorns than the red raspberry; plant has spines or sharp edges; use extreme caution when handling. The large, full flavored berries are great for making wonderful jam, jelly and pies; also used in making wine and other spirits. These purple raspberries have intense flavor and aroma and are a treat for any gardener! Large, round, firm berries dangle from vigorous, fairly erect canes that are strong and heavy. Plant them 3-5 feet apart within rows, and 12 feet apart between rows. At the end of the harvest season in summer, prune to ground level.
