The plants exhibit high vigor, producing two crops per year. In most parts of the U.S., the plants can be mowed to the ground after the foliage naturally falls. The stems will regrow in spring, yielding fruit by mid-August, with harvest continuing until mid-October. If the canes are left to overwinter, they will produce a late spring crop that ripens around the same time as Jewell. Zones 3-8.
