Strawberry Plants Varieties

BISH was released by North Carolina Agricultural Research Service in 2002. (Experimental variety name NC95-08) It is a plasticulture-adapted variety developed from the cross FL87-210 / Delmarvel. The plant’s characteristics are very similar to Delmarvel and it produces more fruit and larger fruit. Bish is significantly more resistant to anthracnose fruit rot (Colletotrichum acutatum) in comparison with standard plasticulture varieties. It is equal to or better than Chandler for all fruit traits (appearance, firmness, symmetry, skin color, flesh color, skin toughness, flavor) except flesh color. It has better flavor than Camarosa, and is equal to or better for appearance, symmetry and skin color. Flesh color, fruit firmness and skin toughness are adequate. Bish is best adapted from the southern Appalachians up through the Middle Atlantic states. Variety Producers
CAMAROSA was released by University of California. It is a strawberry variety developed from Douglas / Cal 85.218-605. Plant growth is similar to ‘Chandler’. Compared to Chandler, leaf color is distinctly lighter on the underside. Individual leaflets for Camarosa are larger, somewhat longer and narrower than for Chandler. Leaves (including petioles) are similar in length to Chandler, but are much broader. Petioles are thicker and stiffer than those of Chandler. Color of Camarosa leaves are darker green in comparison with Chandler. Leaves of Camarosa are less concave than leaves of Chandler. US Plant Patent PP8,708. Variety Producers
CAMINO REAL is a new and distinct short-day strawberry cultivar. Attractive mostly symmetrical-conic fruit of very good quality typically is formed in a good yield. The fruit flavor is good and the fraction of non-marketable fruit tends to be low. The growth habit is very compact. Relatively small broad concave leaflets are formed that display semi-pointed serrations. Variety Producers
CHANDLER was released by University of California. It is a strawberry variety developed from Douglas / C55. Leaflets of Chandler are about the same size as those of `Tioga` averaging about one serration more per terminal half leaf.
