Raspberry Seeds

Raspberries are the edible fruit of a plant species in the rose family.
There are many types of raspberries ? including black, purple and golden ? but the red raspberry, or Rubus idaeus, is the most common.
Red raspberries are native to Europe and northern Asia and cultivated in temperate areas worldwide. Most US raspberries are grown in California, Washington and Oregon.
These sweet, tart berries have a short shelf life and are harvested only during the summer and fall months. For these reasons, raspberries are best eaten shortly after purchasing.
