Details
Another new variety developed by the NY State Experiment Station, Geneva, NY, Prelude is identified as the earliest ripening summer red raspberry, ripening in mid-June under NY conditions. Although Prelude is also fall-bearing, it produces the biggest portion of its crop in the spring. Very winter hardy and vigorous, Prelude berries are round-conic, coherent, with very good flavor. An excellent choice when earliness and quality are required. (Zones 3-8).
