Giant raspberry - Rubus loganobaccus 'Tayberry' (fruits xl)
Rubus loganobaccus 'Tayberry' is a cross between the North American blackberry (Rubus ursinus) and the European raspberry (Rubus idaeus) , created in 1979 in Scotland. The plant has earned its reputation as a super fruit - the fruit is tasty, large (up to 4cm!), the production is abundant, and the content of vitamins and antioxidants is high.

The amount of fruit is considered very high - production from specialized farms reaches 27 tons/hectare. In the case of specimens planted in private gardens, productions of 35 kg/adult specimen were reported.
Withstands temperatures up to - 25 °C. For an abundant fruit production, it should be planted in a sunny area, without neglecting irrigation.

Plants for the garden or terrace are grown in unprotected spaces or with minimal protection (shading nets or anti-hail nets). For this reason, naturally, they cannot have perfect foliage - the leaves can show traces, defects or other damage.
In the cold season, the plants enter the period of vegetative rest.
