Raspberry Malling Minerva is the best early-season variety ready for harvesting from as early as June. Malling Minerva is mercifully spine-free with upright stems great for fitting in small spaces where space is tight. Produces attractive well-sized fruit & good storage attributes. If you have fruit to spare we recommend you keep them in a fridge. Malling Minerva has excellent disease resistance & gives you about eight punnets per plant.
