Abstract

Described is a new and distinct fall bearing red raspberry variety named `PS-1049` which is capable of producing fruit on first year primocanes, and both floricanes and primocanes in subsequent years. The new variety is particularly characterized by its heavy primocane production, beginning as early as July 15 in Santa Cruz County, Calif., and significant floricane yields peaking in mid to late June. The fruit is of medium size with druplets of uniform size and distribution. The fruit is of excellent quality adapted well to the fresh fruit market with only a slight tendency to darken after harvest. The plant is vigorous with dense foliage and many stout thorns. The foliage is relatively large with an occasional raised mid vein and slight downward cupping.
