ALLSTAR
Latest. With almost perfect strawberry shape, Allstar has become a major variety during the late mid-season time. The glossy
firm fruit, which holds its size very well, is an excellent U-pick or home garden choice. It's orange-red color and delicate skin
lessens its shipping potential. Allstar's vigor & resistance to red stele, Verticillium, moderate resistance to powdery mildew
andleaf scotch, makes it suitable to almost any growing region and soil condition.

EARLIGLOW
Earliest. Many consider Earliglow berries the best flavored of all the widely grown commercial varieties. Earliglow produces
medium sized berries, with size decreasing greatly as the season progresses, making it difficult for U-pick farms to sell later
fruit. Even with its drawbacks, Earliglow is one of the most widely planted varieties in the Midwest and Northwest largely due
to its fantastic flavor. This is our favorite strawberry.

HONEOYE
Fantastic yielder. This berry has a large fruit with a beautiful color. It is firm, red clear through and is great for pies. A good
fresh shipper and very winter hardy. Currently the most popular PYO variety in the MW. & NE. It's the leading producer in
holding size during the long harvest season. Honeoye is best flavored when allowed to grow in lighter soils. Due to flavor &
lack of disease resistance it is best to keep this variety on lighter soils or raised beds.

NORTHEASTERN
This early variety ripens with Earlyglow but with larger fruit and bigger yield. It can be grown even on heavy soils as it is
resistant to the 5 eastern races of red stele, put is susceptible to powdery mildew. Northeastern will not runner as freely as
Earlyglow and should be adaptable as a u-pick fresh market or freezer berry for most northern growing regions. It has worked
well in both hill and matted row systems.

including matted row. A high yielding variety, producing very large fruit and appears to be well adapted to southern regions.

SURECROP
2nd earliest. Home gardeners take note! This variety has become a favorite with home gardeners because its vigorous
growth habit makes it easy to grow and produce good crops in almost any growing region or soil types. Surecrop has red
stele resistance furthering its adaptability. Good firm, solid fruit makes it good for fresh use or for the freezer. All things
considered, Surecrop is a good time proven, trustworthy variety just like its name implies.

TRISTAR - Everbearing
(EB18 x MdU4258) Produces medium to small flavorful fruit - a favorite with home gardeners desiring good dessert quality berries
all season long. The first year, Tristar will give its late season peak of production earlier than Tribute. But, for a steady harvest of
strawberries, both varieties should be planted. It is resistant to both red stele and verticillium wilt. Excellent for use in patio
gardens and/or hanging baskets.

|
TRIBUTE - Everbearing
(EB18 x MdUS4258) The Tribute's medium to large, firm fruit has made it the most popular of the eastern day-neutral varieties. It
is one of the most successful varieties in commercial plantings. During the first year, Tribute will peak in September and the next
year will bring forth a heavy spring crop. It is resistant to both red stele and verticillium wilt.
