Description: This native raspberry produces delicious fruit and can be found growing in a wide variety of conditions from shady moist areas to sunny slopes. It can be used to stabilize slopes due to its spreading root system or used to fill up a shady spot where other plants find it hard to grow like under big trees. For best fruit production, plant in moist sun.

Found in Nature: Shady moist sites and low lying areas to sunny dry hillsides and embankments.

Distribution: Alaska, BC, AB to New Mexico
