American Red Raspberry (Rubus idaeus subsp. strigosus 'Fallgold') - Interesting facts
The fruits of blackberries, raspberries and the like have some of the highest concentrations of antioxidants of any fruit, which is primarily due to their high concentrations of polyphenolic compounds.In the United Kingdom there is a superstition that blackberries should not be harvested after September 29th. After this date the devil has marked them by urinating on the leaves of the brambles. As unfortunate as this may sound, there is some value to the superstition. As October rolls around, the fruits have been on the stem long enough that they may be rotten and infested with insects. Whether or not they are covered with the devil's urine or rotten, they should not be eaten.
American Red Raspberry (Rubus idaeus subsp. strigosus 'Fallgold') - Soil and irrigation
Grow in well drained soil that is moderately fertile. Brambles prefer acidic soil. Infrequent watering. Provide a mulch to prevent the growth of weeds and enhance water retention.
