A new and distinct variety of blackberry plant named DrisBlackSeventeen, particularly characterized by its high yield potential and high vigor, is disclosed.

A new and distinct cultivar of primocane-fruiting raspberry named HFG 1714. The new variety reliably provides balanced heavy crop load on both primocanes and floricanes with very large, conical, extremely firm, subacid, pinkish-red colored berries suited for the fresh market. Plants possess high vigor, high number of spawn, and exceptional bud break in the floricane cycle.

A new raspberry cultivar named Ofelia SO having good fruit colour and flavour, large and firm conical red berries is disclosed. The new cultivar has the advantages of producing fruits that are easy to pick, with a good colour and flavour and a very good shelf-life. The new variety produces two crops per year: the fruits ripen both on previous season's cane in summer and on current season's cane in autumn.

A new and distinct blackberry variety Plablack 1401 is characterized by a combination of traits which include, but are not limited to, weak anthocyanin coloration of dormant cane, many spines density, and abundant production of oblong shaped, and medium fruit size, a primocane fruiting habit that produces and maintains a strong vigorous plant with consistent fruit production on primocanes.

A new cultivar of Rubus idaeus hybrid plant, emr 20172, characterized by its attractive, pale red, bright blunt conical shaped fruit that is well displayed and easy to detach (even in the pink stage), excellent shipping properties and shelf-life that make an ideal variety for large-scale commercial production as a primocane fruiting cultivar, its moderately vigorous primocanes that are held erect with developed lateral branches, its pines and thorns that are not prominent enough to interfere with picking and/or pruning, its berries with excellent eating quality both at harvest and after shipping, its berries that are sweet, fairly aromatic, firm, and juicy with a good balance of sugar and acid, and its early to very early fruiting on primocanes in late summer to early autumn and is not suitable for double cropping.

A new cultivar of Rubus idaeus hybrid plant, emr 20171, that is characterized by its attractive, bright colored blunt conical shaped fruit that is well displayed and easy to detach, its excellent shipping properties and shelf-life that make an ideal variety for large-scale commercial production in the primocane season and as a double cropper; produced both on primocanes and floricanes following a period of natural or enforced dormancy, its vigorous primocanes that are held erect with developed lateral branches, its spines and thorns that are not prominent enough to interfere with picking and/or pruning, its berries with excellent eating quality both at harvest and after shipping, its berries that are sweet, aromatic, firm, and juicy with a good balance of sugar and acid, and its berries that do not darken and retain good texture after being chilled for transport.

A new and distinct variety of blackberry plant named DrisBlackSeventeen, particularly characterized by its high yield potential and high vigor, is disclosed.

A new and distinct variety of blackberry plant named DrisBlackEighteen, particularly characterized by plant health, fruit size, lack of spines, and productivity, is disclosed.

A new and distinct floricane-fruiting red raspberry, Rubus idaeus L., variety is described. The variety results from selection among a population of seedlings derived from a controlled cross between Wakefield (seed parent) (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 21,185) and ZN06004 (pollen parent) (not patented). The new variety is distinguished from others by, medium-large, firm, fruit that have dark red skin color and ripens late season. Fruit of the new variety appears very suitable for machine harvesting and the process fruit market.

This invention relates to a new and distinct variety of red raspberry plant (Rubus idaeus L.) named WSU 2166 adapted to the raspberry production area of the Pacific Northwest. WSU 2166 is primarily characterized by suitability for machine harvestability, tolerance to root rot, early season production and large, conical fruit that is longer than it is broad.
