Raspberry Rubus Idaeus Glycerite Organic Dried Leaves AlcoholFree Liquid Extract 2 oz

Rubus idaeus (Raspberry, also called Red Raspberry or European Raspberry) is a red-fruited species of Rubus native to Europe and northern Asia and commonly cultivated in other temperate regions. Plants of Rubus idaeus are generally perennials which bear biennial stems ("canes") from a perennial root system. A new, unbranched stem ("primocane") grows vigorously to its full height of 1.5-2.5 m (5.0-8.3 feet), in its second year (as a "floricane") a stem does not grow taller, but produces several side shoots. The flowers are produced in late spring on short racemes on the tips of these side shoots. The fruit is red, edible, and sweet but tart-flavoured, produced in summer or early autumn.
