Abstract: The present application relates to new and distinct cultivar of primocane-fruiting raspberry named ‘PBBrasp1348’. The new variety reliably provides balanced heavy crop load on both primocanes and floricanes, with large, glossy, non-darkening, broad-conic fruits of medium adherence to the receptacle. Plants possess high vigor, produce high numbers of spawn, and branch naturally along the main cane. Susceptibility to yellow rust (Phragmidium rubi-idaei) has been observed. Field tolerance to Raspberry Bushy Dwarf Virus (RBDV) and Phytophthora root rot has been observed.
Abstract: The present application relates to a new and distinct cultivar of primocane-fruiting raspberry named ‘PBBrasp1381’. The new variety reliably provides balanced heavy crop load on both primocanes and floricanes, with jumbo, firm, glossy, medium-colored conic fruits of loose adherence to the receptacle and which maintain size throughout harvest. Plants possess high vigor and produce high numbers of spawn. Improved resistance to yellow rust (Phragmidium rubi-idaei), and field tolerance to Raspberry Bushy Dwarf Virus (RBDV) and Phytophthora root rot has been observed.

Abstract: ‘NCORNSP-021SHJB’ is a moderately compact, to compact, non-twining, slightly upright variety producing many short shoots. It is distinguishable from other cultivars by its purple heart shaped leaves that are entire with a cordate base; a moderately compact to compact habit and semi-erect mounding plant architecture. The purple leaves of this plant, short internodes, and the plant architecture are what make ‘NCORNSP-021SHJB’ unique amongst the current ornamental sweetpotatoes in the marketplace. ‘NCORNSP-021SHJB’ also exhibits very good vigor and is very well branched. In greenhouse and field trials conducted since 2013, ‘NCORNSP-021SHJB’ has been shown to be much less vigorous than Ipomoea batatas ‘Margarita’ and ‘Blackie’ and is suitable for use as a landscape or containerized plant. The production of flowers by ‘NCORNSP-021SHJB’ is sporadic under short day conditions.
