VARIETY SPOTLIGHT

Last Call

HIGH Chill

Last Call ripens very late season in the same window as Aurora and Elliott. This vigorous, upright bush produces high yields of large berries that are classically sweet and slightly aromatic. Although primary use is for commercial fresh production, it is also recommended for processed or local market growers wanting to extend their harvest season. We advise growers not push too much growth and consider applying a lower-than-usual nitrogen ratio. This will decrease late season herbaceous growth that has been observed and can lead to cold damage on tips. The quality of Last Call’s fruit is very high and superior to existing late season varieties. We recommend growers consider leaving the berries on the plants a few extra days to reduce acidity.
