Strawberry Parfum June-bearing Strawberry Meadow® 6-Pack

Product information "Strawberry Parfum June-bearing Strawberry Meadow® 6-Pack"

The smaller but more vigorous sister of 'SchweizerHerz'!
A robust, healthy strawberry with a hearty, delicious flavor that grows profusely and forms many runners that quickly cover the ground - this makes for a wonderful strawberry meadow. A paradise for children and a delight for the gardener!
After the harvest, cut back completely and then the plant will establish itself quickly again.

Plants per square meter: 5 pieces
Maturity: Bears fruit once, medium early, ripens in mid-May, relatively long-lasting harvest period
Fruits: Medium to small-sized fruit, red on the outside with white flesh
Taste/flavour: Firm flesh, consistent, but not unnaturally hard (like many market varieties), very sweet, with a hint of sourness, strong aroma of wild strawberries, wild strawberry fragrance, the aftertaste is sometimes reminiscent of peaches
Yield: High, regular, never disappointing
Growth: Lush growth with many runners, similar to groundcovers, healthy and robust, beautifully flowering
Crossing & Selection: Cross of Tabea x Thuchief by Martin Weber, selected by Lubera
 
What does “June-bearing” exactly mean?
It means that the plants only bear fruit when we eagerly await strawberries, when they taste best in late May and June.
 
Where does the “Parfum” come from in Lubera’s Parfum strawberries?
What is often described as a "wild strawberry fragrance" and what makes strawberries that still taste like strawberries to many connoisseurs, is actually the smell of methyl anthranilate, which we perceive at the finish while exhaling through the nose.
 
Why I breed new varieties of strawberries for growing in gardens...
• because strawberry breeding has been primarily carried out for industrial commercial cultivation, which asks for very different properties than amateur gardeners
• because most market varieties can be easily picked; they are firm and high-yielding, but the flavour is mostly mediocre
• because strawberries should taste like strawberries again!
