Raspberry ‘Fallgold’ is an unusual and attractive cultivar valued for its golden-yellow berries and extended fruiting season. As an everbearing type, it combines ornamental interest with reliable harvests in fruit gardens, borders, and larger containers.

This variety produces bright golden raspberries with a sweet, honey-like flavour. The fruit is well suited to fresh eating as well as desserts, jams, and preserves. Compared with traditional red raspberries, both the colour and flavour are distinctive. Harvest usually occurs in two phases, with a lighter crop in early to mid summer followed by a heavier crop from late summer into autumn.

‘Fallgold’ grows as an upright, deciduous raspberry shrub forming a clump of vigorous canes. Mature plants typically reach approximately 1.2 to 1.5 metres in height. As with most raspberries, light support such as posts or wires helps keep canes organised and simplifies harvesting.

For best results, plant in full sun to light shade in fertile, moist but well-drained soil. Raspberries prefer consistent moisture but do not tolerate waterlogged conditions. A sunny, sheltered position supports healthy flowering and optimal fruit development.

This variety is self-fertile and can produce fruit independently without requiring another raspberry plant nearby. Bees and other pollinators contribute to improved fruit set and yield.

We select our fruit plants with winter hardiness in mind, ensuring suitability for outdoor cultivation in our climate once properly established.

For gardeners seeking golden fruit, extended harvests, and distinctive flavour, ‘Fallgold’ remains a rewarding and visually appealing raspberry choice.
