Too long a Q at the gardening check-out, so couldn't enquire. The varieties
FWIW : Malling General Leo, Malling Jewel, Glen Prosen and Glen Clova.


In my experience Leo is one of the best tasting commercial rasperries, but
I've found it susceptible to disease. Malling Jewel is a good cropper, but
fruit taste is a bit bland. I've not (knowingly) tasted the 2 glens
mentioned.
