I was wondering what the pedigree was for Queen Anne? And what the goal was? I bought the seeds a few years ago, and never had much success with it, until this year. A single plant from my last seed. In a really wet nasty year full of disease. The fruit is red/ yellow striped. Approx 3-5 oz. I never took notes on what it was or what generation etc.

I have re-selected my segregations of Queen Anne clones and I think I have some winners. The idea was to improve on the flavor of my Brandy Stripe/Vintage Wine crosses. I will have to look again at the pedigree and see more detail as my mind is not remembering every detail. Pink and yellow slicers was the obvious goal.....

Doh.. I've kept a strain since the late 90's that we thought was called Queen Anne- and were calling it that. The fruit averages over a pound. Turns out I may have screwed up labeling. Was probably Golden Queen (meanwhile the raspberries I got at the same time were Queen Anne. Think with the similar coloring I screwed up.) Shared the seeds over the years with the wrong name. /facepalm

I used the name "Queen Anne" since the days when my oldest son lived in the Queen Anne district of Seattle, WA. The name is a common one for various reasons but then again, I name so many varieties I actually forget about them over a time. The pedigree of a variety often plays into the final name.
