‘Malling Minerva’ Raspberry Plants
- Whether you eat them straight from the plant, sprinkle them over a pavlova or create jars and jars of sweet, scrummy jam, raspberries undoubtedly have a place in the great fruiting pantheon. And when you grow them yourself? Well, they taste just that little bit better!
- ‘Malling Minerva’ is an exceptional early-season, summer-fruiting variety, reliably producing large crops of delicious raspberries on floricanes (year-old stems).
- The fruit has great texture and firmness, making them ideal for freezing.
- We love raspberries. We don’t love having our hands and arms receiving an impromptu acupuncture session each time we try and pick the fruit… Relax, though, because this variety has no spines, meaning you can put that dusty first-aid box away.
- Grow your raspberry plant(s) against a wire trellis fixed to a wall, using a freestanding raspberry trellis or even in a large pot on the patio (at least 10L).
- A deserved recipient of the Royal Horticultural Society’s Award of Garden Merit, this variety is known for performing well in British gardens.
- Certified by the RHS as one of its Plants for Pollinators – be(e)autiful stuff!
