Strawberry Christine A+ Grade Plants (Early Season)

A super strawberry variety much famed for its superior fruit quality and disease resistance. Strawberry Christine plants has large bright, orangey-red berries that have excellent flavour with high levels of natural sweetness and are ready for picking from early June. Plants show good resistance to verticillium wilt and powdery mildew. Delivered as dormant bare rooted A+ grade plants. A+ grade plants are grown through the summer months and covered with fleece in the beginning for added protection – only plants with a 15mm+ diameter size fall into this grade. They are characterised by having very well developed root systems and, on average, will go on to produce 3-4 trusses per plant which in turn will help to generate more flowers and fruit – 400g+ of berries per plant! We trialled A+ grade plants against standard runners in our trials and were very impressed with the results – around 50% more berries were harvested from the A+ grade plants!
