Strawberry KIMBERLY

Fragaria x ananassa KIMBERLY

Size: P-9

Plant age: 1+ y.

Description:

This variety has an early ripening period and high yield potential. With proper care and timely fertilization, you can harvest up to 1 kg of berries from a single plant over the season. The berries have a perfectly heart-shaped form and a pronounced shine. The bright red exterior is slightly lighter on the inside when cut. The flavor is very sweet due to its high sugar content. The fruits have a rich aroma and are resistant to damage during transportation thanks to their firm texture. Each berry can weigh up to 60 g, all of them uniform in size and shape. One of the main advantages of this variety is its resistance to powdery mildew, fungal diseases, and its winter hardiness.

The plants are low-growing but have tall, strong, and sturdy flower stalks. This ensures that the berries remain upright without drooping to the ground, even if they stay on the plant for an extended period. This makes harvesting more convenient. By picking the ripe berries in a timely manner, you can avoid the common issue of smaller berries toward the end of the season. Thus, the berry weight at the end of the fruiting period remains as large as at the beginning. Even under low-temperature conditions, the berries stay intact without cracking or becoming overly soft.
