Yellow himalayan raspberry
Also known as: Golden Himalayan raspberry, Cheeseberry
The fruit of the yellow himalayan raspberry looks like a raspberry, except it's yellow, so that's the name explained. It isn't grown commercially though, since the fruit decays soon after removal from the plant. Unfortunately, this plant is so invasive that it is classified as one of the world's top 100 invasive plants - growing into dense thickets that crowd out native species.

Water: Originating from the Himalayas, yellow himalayan raspberry thrives in high humidity and requires consistent moisture without waterlogging. Watering twice a week is optimal. It flourishes outdoors, benefiting from natural rainfall, and demands attentive irrigation for robust growth during the growing season to support flowering and fruit production.
Fertilize: For yellow himalayan raspberry, apply balanced, slow-release fertilizer in spring, followed by high-nitrogen feedings. Adjust quantity based on plant size; twice yearly is sufficient, but monthly during fruiting aids yield. Use gloves and distribute evenly to ensure root uptake while avoiding over-fertilization.
Pruning: Yellow himalayan raspberry exhibits robust growth with thorny canes. Prune in early spring to eliminate weak canes and enhance air circulation. Use clean, sharp tools for precise cuts, which aids in managing growth and disease prevention, ensuring a healthy, productive plant.
Propagation: Yellow himalayan raspberry is a vigorous bramble species valued for its sweet fruit. Successful propagation involves taking healthy cuttings from mature plants, using rooting hormone, and planting in well-draining soil with high humidity. Maintaining moisture and shielding from harsh conditions supports the growth of strong new plants.
