XL and aromatic fruit raspberry - Rubus loganobaccus 'Tayberry'
Rubus loganobaccus 'Tayberry' is a cross between the North American blackberry (Rubus ursinus) and the European raspberry (Rubus idaeus) , developed in Scotland in 1979. The plant has earned a reputation as a super fruit - the fruit is tasty, large (up to 4cm!) , abundant in production, and high in vitamins and antioxidants.
In terms of production, it is considered an incredible shrub, because the fruits appear and ripen in stages starting in June, and in the case of mature specimens, fruiting occurs until late autumn. The amount of fruit is considered very high - productions from specialized farms reach 27 tons/hectare. In the case of specimens planted in private gardens, productions of 35 kg/adult specimen have been reported.

Garden or patio plants are grown in unprotected spaces or with minimal protection (shade nets or hail nets). For this reason, naturally, they cannot have perfect foliage - the leaves may show marks, defects or other damage.
In the cold season, plants enter a period of vegetative dormancy.
