Caroline Everbearing Raspberry is a small upright thorny deciduous shrub primarily grown for its fruit. The small white flowers bloom in spring attracting butterflies and produces abundant large, red conical raspberries with a sweet tang for 8 weeks. Grows best in full sun and rich, moist, slightly acidic well-drained soils. Caroline has improved disease resistance and is resistant to root rot.
