This is an exciting new hybrid introduced to the US from Switzerland. It has been an extremely productive new variety in Europe and comes highly recommended to the USA. The large, firm berries freeze well and are flavorful, well formed and easy-to-pick (separate easily from the bush). Himbo Top produces fewer suckers (branches that sprout from the base of the old canes) and is useful for small gardens. NOT suitable for growing in extremely hot areas of the desert Southwest. Plants fruit lightly their second growing season and come into full production by the third year. The plants are productive for at least 15 years. *Catalog/Website only.* Zones 4-8
