Add rare dual-season fruiting to your berry garden with Niwot Black Raspberry Plants, the first-ever everbearing black raspberry variety available to home growers. This unique plant produces two crops per year—one in early summer and another in the fall—providing a longer raspberry season than traditional black raspberry varieties.

Niwot produces firm, jet-black raspberries with excellent sweetness and rich flavor. Ideal for snacking, baking, and preserving, the berries are held on strong, upright canes that are easy to manage and trellis. Cold hardy and highly productive, Niwot performs well in USDA Zones 5–8 and is a standout choice for gardeners looking for reliable performance with extended harvest windows.

Shipped as 1-year-old bare root plants, these raspberries are ready to plant in early spring or fall and will reward you with sweet, dark fruit in both early and late growing seasons.
