Which are summer and fall Raspberries?

Hi, I have 2 different types of Raspberry bushes and I was wondering which is the Summer type and which is the Fall type.
One is called Raspberry, Cumberland (Blk) and the other one is called Raspberry, Fall Gold (R). Now that I see the second one's name, I'm assuming that one is fall?
Also if they are different how do I tell which one is what?
Thanks for your help
Sue

I thought most raspberries fruited all summer and through to late Autumn? My Dad's seem too and produce abundance of fruit.

I think the one with Fall in title would be the later bearing plant.

Enjoy your crops! Love raspberries.

I'm with ya here, I just planted a fall gold raspberry bush and I have no idea as to when they'll be ready. I'm obviously assuming fall...but will I know it's time by their gold color? I guess we'll have to keep each other updated! :)

This is what I found online:

FALL GOLD EVERBEARING RASPBERRY
Raspberry - Everbearing

Large, conical, very sweet, soft, golden berries. Excellent for processing and fresh eating. First crop ripens in July. Second crop from late Aug. to frost.
