A low growing herbaceous ground cover, Arctic Raspberry is a raspberry plant without thorns! The plants grow to be a mature height of five inches tall and spread by rhizomes, making a thick mat of bright green trifoliate leaves. In late spring one inch pinkish lavender flowers appear and the red fruits will appear in the middle of the summer. As the fruits ripen, the sweet aroma of Raspberries among the plants will attract the raspberry lover to the area to taste the delicious fruits. Fall color is very nice with foliage showing shades of red and burgundy.
The cultivars Sophie, Anna, Valentina, and Beta were selected in Sweden by Dr. Gunny Larssen. They were her favorite varieties for flavor, plant vigor, fruit quality, and extreme hardiness.
At least two different varieties should be planted near each other to ensure cross pollination and fruit production.
