Notes

'Fallgold' raspberry (Rubus idaeus 'Fallgold') is a shrub for food gardens, hedges, and pollinator gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything. It has an arching habit and grows 48 to 60 inches tall. White flowers draw butterflies, bees, and birds.

Pairs well with Empire apple, Foxglove, and Hyssop.
