Pollination
Reka is generally self-fertile, but another Northern Highbush cultivar with overlapping bloom can improve berry size and yield. Consider Draper or Patriot.
Planting and Care
Plant in full sun and acidic, well-drained soil, ideally around pH 4.5–5.5. Maintain even moisture and mulch the shallow root zone. Reka can overcrop if not pruned, so renew fruiting wood annually and thin crowded growth to support berry size.
