Willamette
USA, Canada
-
late June
The Willamette Raspberry is a leading variety in the USA and Canada and is popular among local growers. It was developed in Oregon by crossing Newburgh and Lloyd George raspberries. Belonging to the early-ripening group, it begins fruiting in June. Thanks to its abundant yield, it is one of the most economical raspberry varieties. The berries are suitable for all uses, including deep freezing. They are easy to harvest and withstand transport well.
The fruit has a pleasant, refreshing aroma, with a sweet-tart, aromatic flavor.
The berries of this variety are large, conical with a slightly toothed shape, firm, and dark red in color, averaging 4 grams each.
Self-pollinating.
A highly resistant plant. To prevent diseases and ensure good fruiting the following year, raspberries should be pruned immediately after harvest.
You can purchase seedlings of Raspberry Willamette at our garden center in the nursery located at Gornjem Crnjelovu, Glavna 65a.
Upon collection of the goods (seedlings), the Agromedžik nursery no longer has the possibility of supervision or care, and therefore cannot provide any further guarantee. Since seedlings are living beings, it is not possible to give a guarantee even a day after they leave the nursery. We cannot influence their maintenance and care, and consequently their further growth and development.
Our plants regularly undergo phytosanitary and vegetative inspections, therefore we do not have diseased or infected plants.
Planting is done from late October to mid-April, avoiding periods of frost and drought.
Trim the roots, then the branches into 3 to 4 rings. At the beginning of March, cut the seedlings to a height of 80 - 120 cm.
Before planting, soak the plant in water for at least 2 - 3 hours.
Dig a hole, in the previously prepared soil, measuring 60 x 60 x 50 cm for the soil (40 x 40 x 40 cm) so that the roots and part of the stem are well placed, taking care that the grafting point is outside the soil.
Place the plant in the hole and cover it with dry soil, gently press it down so that it gets well between the roots.
Fertilizer and seedling roots must not be in direct contact.
Pour with 20-30 liters of water. During periods of drought in the first year of planting, it is necessary to water young seedlings more often.
Containerized seedlings can be planted throughout the year.
*Applies to bare root seedlings.
