shown) and advanced early primocane growth in this study, the difference in primocane height was not maintained through the season as reported in primocane-fruiting red raspberry ( Pritts et al., 1992 ). Bloom and harvest season. Date of first bloom on

chill, compared with the high-chill counterparts. ‘Liberty Joy’ fruit typically ripen in late June to early July in Byron, GA. At maturity, the fruit surface is 90% to 95% bright red, with an attractive yellow ground color and little pubescence. The

medium vigor cultivar with open spreading tree habit, precocious, high cropping, consistently productive with outstanding fruit quality. Its medium to large dark purple red, low pubescence and firm fruit makes it different to its original cultivar

observations of ‘American Beauty’ indicated fewer number of fruit not only because of fewer production of flowers as compared with other cultivars, but also little fertilization in those plants that flowered. The lowest production of 25 cultivars evaluated in

after full bloom and fruit size is medium with average weight of 243 g. Fruit skin is striped with light red and flesh color is creamy white. Flesh is soft and melting with good quality. Red pigmentation is very weak in the outer flesh and around the pit

the mature green stage were harvested between 5 and 10 Aug. Fruits at the pre-NFDS, during which peel color began to change from magenta to bright red and fruit drop was expected in 2 to 3 d, and fruits at the post-NFDS, which dropped into a net that
