    Abstract: A new and distinct cultivar of strawberry plant (Fragaria.times.ananassa) named `NJ8614-2`, which is a short day cultivar similar to `Earliglow`, but which is exceptional for its disease resistance and its combination of early season harvest of very attractive large fruit, with high productivity.
