Lisa,

I was looking at the Berries Unlimited site and Heritage is a late blooming type. In Zone 5 i would avoid it. I think now my Canadian friends were having problems getting fruit! I had it bass ackwards!
Polka is early season, so i would suggest that one. I said fruit was small but they were prolific in the first year. Many raspberries are not, a good sign of an excellent plant. At least we know it's an early bloomer, and you want that.
