FE1711

Early season

FE1711 is a mid-early June-bearing strawberry selection. Its harvest window commences three days after Allegro and slightly before Darselect. Early trials indicate that FE1711 is suitable for planting in conventional fresh and frigo cultivation systems, either in open field or under tunnels. The plants of FE1711 give a healthy, balanced impression and have green to lime green, shiny leaves. The growth habit of FE1711 is compact and less vegetative than Allegro. FE1711 is also relatively heat tolerant and able to cope with periods of high temperatures.

Calinda

Mediterranean

Calinda is an early season short-day cultivar that produces exceptionally attractive, flavoursome berries. Calinda’s well-developed cone-shaped fruits have a high Brix value which they maintain throughout the whole season, unlike other varieties. Its excellent shelf life is unmatched, guaranteeing that Calinda strawberries will arrive in perfect condition at all destinations within Europe. The yield is very regular during the whole harvest period. Calinda is ideally adapted to a Mediterranean climate.

Allegro

Early season

Allegro is a new early season variety which was developed at Fresh Forward’s June-bearing breeding program. Allegro, a term in music and dance denoting a brisk tempo, lives up to its name through its fast production pace and high total yield. In terms of fruit quality, Allegro also manages to impress! It is characterised by very uniform and bright red fruits, with excellent taste. Allegro is a healthy and fast growing plant, with good tolerance to soil diseases. Allegro has a bright future ahead, particularly in early tunnel and open field cultivation.

Sonata

Mid Season

Sonata is precisely what a strawberry should be: very tasty and attractive. This mid-season single-cropping variety is characterised by excellent setting and yields of attractive, uniform fruit containing a high percentage of class I strawberries. Sonata strawberries are easy to pick and require little sorting. The variety is suitable for many different cropping systems from Scandinavia to the Alps. Sonata guarantees juicy strawberries with a sweet taste and a distinct strawberry aroma. Typical of Sonata are its conical shape, orange-red colour and attractive crown. The firm fruits retain their attractive shiny appearance even after a few days’ storage.

Opera

Mid Season

Opera is a variety from Fresh Forward’s breeding programme of short-day varieties. Opera combines a range of exceptional characteristics such as large fruit, a beautiful shine and a very high picking rate. These characteristics make Opera an excellent alternative to Elsanta in (greenhouse) table-top cultivation.
