Cowichan - Low Input

A vigorous variety with a high fruit yields over a long picking season. It has an upright habit producing strong canes with spines only towards the base. The fruit is long and conical with bright, medium-red colour and a sweet flavour. It has good disease resistance and a moderate resistance to root rot. Bred in Canada it has very good weather and winter hardiness, but like Tulameen, due to its height, it benefits from a sheltered site.
