Glencoe Black Raspberry
🌿 Ships well rooted in a 1 gallon pot. Well established root system and ready to plant!
Glencoe Black Raspberry—a rare gem that combines the rich, intense flavor of wild black raspberries with the thornless canes and compact size of a garden-friendly cultivar. Bred in Scotland, this variety brings all the deep color, antioxidant-rich fruit, and sweet-tart punch you love, without the sprawling wild brambles or painful thorns.
Perfect for small spaces, food forests, and backyard berry patches, Glencoe ripens in early summer and produces clusters of deep purple-black berries that are great for fresh eating, freezing, or turning into next-level jam. Glencoe will need support for its canes.
