Encore Raspberry is an upright deciduous shrub that is nearly thornless and has a high production of large, firm, extremely sweet fruit that ripens in early summer.  Its small but attractive spring bloom of pink flowers attracts pollinators.  Grows best in full sun and rich, moist, slightly acidic well-drained soils.  Encore is self-pollinating and resistant to root rot.
