  • Publication number: 20130025007
    Abstract: A new and distinct variety of strawberry plant of the short-day type characterized as a mid-season fruiter for Connecticut. Plants are highly vigorous when challenged with the soil-dwelling pathogen complex responsible for black root rot and so are tolerant to this disease. Foliage is not preferred by adult black vine weevils, even in comparison to the non-preferred ‘Delmarvel.’ Flowers are self-fertile with little malformed fruit which is globose conic and usually solid. The fruit has excellent sweetness, acidity, and fragrance. The fruit is moderately soft, making it appropriate for local markets.
