Grow the Rainbow: Varieties with Extraordinary Color

“I prefer their flavor over all of my traditional red raspberries. They are also pretty hardy and easy to grow.” - Kathleen D.

“I got three plants and had cascades of big golden berries all summer and well into the fall. They taste like a cross between an apricot and a raspberry. I had lots for eating and for baking.” Laura P.

Pink Lemonade Blueberry – They taste as good as they sound, and the pink flowers in the spring are exceptionally pretty compared to other blueberry varieties.

“I started out with 2 plants and after tasting the 1st crop of berries, I am hooked on the pinks! I find them more flavorful than the blues and they are very sweet. I ordered 8 more plants.” Mariette C.

“Out of the 10+ varieties of blueberries I grow, Pink Lemonade blueberries have the best flavor.” - Andie B.

“We planted this tree last spring. We got half a dozen cherries off it this year. I am pleasantly surprised as I didn't expect to get fruit so soon. I expect it will do better each year.” - Jennifer D.

LSU Gold Fig - In addition to the unique fig color, it’s fast-growing and a heavy producer that is well suited to containers.
