🍓 Why Grow Nova Raspberries?

Nova is a versatile raspberry variety that can be grown as a summer-bearing raspberry in northern regions, including the upper Midwest, or as a fall-bearing variety in suitable southern climates. Its performance and fruiting season depend on your local climate and growing conditions.

Enjoy the potential for generous harvests of firm, bright red berries. The fruit ripens over several months, making Nova a rewarding option for fresh eating and home fruit production.

🌱 Growth and Planting Information

These plants are fully rooted and established in pots. Under favorable growing conditions, they may grow approximately 3–6 feet tall during a growing season. Actual size and growth rate depend on climate, sunlight, soil, water, and plant care.

Choose a sunny planting location with well-draining soil. Regular watering during establishment and appropriate pruning will help support healthy growth and future fruit production.

📦 Shipping and Seasonal Information

• Plant quantity: Four potted plants.

• Shipping schedule: Orders for 1–2 year old potted plants ship Monday or Tuesday via UPS 3 Day Select.

• Dormancy: Plants may ship dormant without leaves during fall and winter. Leafy growth is more likely during spring and summer.

• Pots: Pots may be removed before shipping to help prepare plants for shipment. Plants are shipped as live, rooted plants—not seeds.

Dormant plants may appear bare or inactive during colder months. This is a normal part of the raspberry growth cycle and does not necessarily mean the plant is unhealthy.

❄️ Important Seasonal Note

If ordering in fall or winter, starter plants only 6–8 months old are generally not recommended unless you have greenhouse or other suitable protected growing conditions. In many locations, there may not be enough time for young starter plants to establish before cold weather arrives. USDA zone alone does not guarantee successful establishment.

Please Note: Raspberry growth, flowering, and harvest timing vary with plant maturity, climate, winter conditions, sunlight, soil, pruning, and ongoing care. Fruit production is not guaranteed in the first growing season.
