Indian Summer is described here as an everbearing red raspberry, introduced by the New York Experiment Station and sold for northern planting by Daniels Nursery. Daniels describes it as a two crop sort that can also be grown as a one crop bearer, suggesting it was valued for flexibility as well as fruit quality. [S2]
Daniels is the only source in this packet that provides a real cultivar profile. It describes Indian Summer as a proven success both as an everbearer and as a standard bearer, with the fall crop borne on new canes, starting in September and continuing until frost. [S2]
The berries are described as large, conical, sweet, and relatively low in seeds. Daniels also credits it with fine shipping quality, suggesting firmer fruit than many home garden raspberries. [S2]
The plant is described as a husky grower, hardy, and resistant to common diseases. The same source says it bears from mid season into late fall, placing it among the longer season raspberries in the catalog. [S2]
The hardiness evidence in this packet is limited but direct. Daniels calls the plant hardy in a nursery guide aimed at northern growers in the Northwest, Minnesota, and Canada. [S2]
One source complication should be stated plainly. A South Dakota nursery availability circular also lists a plant named Indian Summer, but only as a stock list entry under sandcherry plum hybrids, with no description beyond the name and source number. That may be a different cultivar with the same name rather than this raspberry. [S1]
