Most gardeners grow red raspberries in the garden. Little is known that there are a large number of yellow raspberry varieties. Yellow raspberries are a real eye-catcher. They are sweet as sugar and are in no way inferior to their red relatives.

Add color to the garden with yellow raspberries

Yellow raspberries are hard to come by in stores. That's one more reason to grow a few yellow varieties in the garden or in the tub yourself.

The cultivation does not differ from that of the red representatives. You can grow yellow raspberries outdoors as well as in pots on the balcony or terrace.

Most yellow breeds that are commercially available are relatively new. They are more resilient to diseases and pests. The probably oldest yellow raspberry that is still commonly cultivated is the "Yellow Antwerp".

A selection of yellow raspberries

The variety of yellow raspberries is so great that it is difficult to find the right variety. A small overview of well-known and lesser-known raspberry varieties will help you decide.

Yellow summer raspberries

  • "Golden Queen"
  • “Yellow Antwerpen”
  • "falling gold"

"Golden Queen" is one of the newer breeds that are more robust than older strains. The first fruits are already ripe in summer. Until the first frost, new fruits keep developing.

You can do without scaffolding when installing the “Yellow Antwerpener”. "Fallgold" is not just a summer raspberry. The first berries are already ripe in July, so they are also among the early autumn raspberries.

Yellow autumn raspberries

  • "AlpenGold"
  • "Autumn Amber"
  • "Autumn Gold"
  • "Golden Everest"
  • "Golden Bliss"
  • "Goldmarie"

"Alpengold" is highly valued by many gardeners because it does not form thorns. The "Goldmarie" variety is not easy to obtain. It is one of the old country varieties that are unfortunately only rarely planted. It is often only available in exchange in neighboring allotment colonies.

If you want to plant a hardy variety in your garden, 'Golden Everest' is a good choice. It is resistant to diseases and produces beautiful large fruits. “Autumn Amber” has a very pretty colouration, the yellow of which has an apricot tone. The fruits of "Herbstgold" get a warm honey tone.

Yellow two-timer variety

A yellow two-timer variety is 'Sugana'. It develops very large fruits and tastes aromatically of wild raspberries. Since it can be harvested twice, it is particularly well suited for cultivation in the allotment garden.
