An attractive bush with beautiful large purple flowers blooming for a long period in the summer, producing a rose-like fragrance. Large five-lobed leaves. Its showy flowers, plus the fact that this Rubus shrub is not armed with little to no thorns or prickles, makes it one of the most popular ornamental raspberries (even though the berries are not especially appetizing). Often chosen as a boarder shrub.
