This newer variety has quickly gained popularity among strawberry growers in Maine. Large glossy bright red fruit not only ripens before Earliglow, but also has great flavor. Benji Knisley of Sand Hill Farm says she likes it almost as much as her long-time favorite Earliglow. Highly productive and maintains fruit size. Vigorous plants are tolerant to red stele and foliage diseases. PPA. Z4. BACK! (virus-free bare-root crowns)
