Bay Area–Based Nursery

We specialize in plants grown and delivered in their original pots and soil.
Because of their size and weight, our plants are not suitable for long-distance shipping and are delivered locally to ensure health and quality.

While delivery is limited to our local service area, we’re happy to support garden design and plant selection remotely.

For local plant professionals, we’re always glad to connect and explore ways to support your customers.

Brighten your autumn garden with a harvest of sunshine! The Fall Gold Raspberry is a remarkable everbearing variety that produces large, honey-sweet, golden berries when most other fruits have finished. Its unique color and exceptional flavor make it a must-have for Bay Area gardeners seeking to extend their berry season with minimal fuss.

Produces large, conical berries in a stunning golden-yellow hue, offering a sweet, mild flavor often described as honeyed or tropical.
An everbearing (or fall-bearing) variety that yields a heavy crop on the tips of first-year canes in late summer to fall, and optionally a lighter spring crop on the lower portion of the same canes if left unpruned.
A vigorous, self-pollinating deciduous shrub with upright, thorny canes that form a productive thicket.
Thrives in full sun to partial shade and appreciates consistent moisture, especially during fruit set in our dry summers.
Golden berries are less attractive to birds than red varieties, though netting is still recommended for a full harvest.
Excellent for fresh eating, baking, and making beautiful, light-colored jams that retain their golden color.

Flavor Profile:

Flavor: Very sweet with low acidity, featuring delicate honey and apricot notes.
Texture: Firm yet juicy, with a classic raspberry texture.
Best Uses: Premium fresh eating, elegant desserts, unique jams and preserves, and as a beautiful garnish.

Knowing how we measure the size?

When browsing our plants, you may notice size terms such as Gallon, Multi, or Stand. These describe how a plant is grown, containerized, or structured at the time of sale — not just its height. Understanding these terms will help you choose the right plant for your space and expectations.

🌱 Gallon Size (Container Size)

Gallon refers to the size of the nursery container the plant is currently growing in (e.g. 1 Gallon, 5 Gallon, 15 Gallon).

A larger gallon size generally means:
- A more established root system
- A sturdier plant
- Faster visual impact after planting
Example:
- 5 Gallon: Ideal for residential gardens, easy to handle, good balance of value and maturity
- 15 Gallon: More mature, provides quicker results in the landscape

Note: Gallon size does not guarantee a specific height, as growth varies by species.

🌳 Multi (Multi-Trunk / Multi-Branch Form)

Multi indicates the plant has multiple trunks or main stems growing from the base.

Commonly used for:
- Ornamental trees
- Feature plants
- Japanese maples, olives, crepe myrtles, etc.
Why choose Multi:
- Fuller, more sculptural appearance
- Strong visual presence even at younger ages
- Popular for design-focused landscapes

🌲 Stand (Single-Trunk / Standard Form)

Stand (short for Standard) refers to a single, dominant trunk with a raised or naturally formed canopy.

Commonly used for:
- Shade trees
- Street trees
- Orchard and structural plantings
Why choose Stand:
- Clean, classic tree form
- Easier clearance for walkways and lawns
- Preferred for long-term structure and uniformity

🌿 Choosing the Right Size

If you want instant impact → larger Gallon, Multi form
If you want long-term structure → Stand form
If you want flexibility and value → mid-size Gallon containers

If you’re unsure which size or form fits your project, our team is happy to help you select the best option based on your space, timeline, and design goals.

It is a "four-season fruiting" variety - each two-year-old branch produces two seasons of fruit. Fruit is produced in the top 1/3 of the branch in autumn, and again in the lower 2/3 of the branch in spring of the following year.

Q: When is the main harvest time?A: The primary, abundant harvest occurs from late August through October in Zone 9a, extending your fresh berry season into fall.
Q: How do I prune it?A: For maximum fall crop (simplest method): After fall harvest, cut all canes to the ground. New canes will emerge in spring and fruit in the same fall. For two crops: After fall harvest, only remove the top third of the canes that fruited. The lower two-thirds will produce a spring crop, then can be cut to the ground after that harvest.
Q: Do golden raspberries taste different from red ones?A: Yes, they are generally sweeter and milder, with a distinct honey-like flavor and less tartness, making them a favorite for fresh eating.
