Strawberry plant--`The Crown`

Abstract

A new distinct winter planted spring bearing variety of strawberry plant, characterized by its large fruit produced both during the crown crop and subsequent crops. The primary berries have distinct longitudinal furrows. The fruit is produced on long thick pedicels. The hair on pedicels is perpendicular to the pedicel. The berries are considered firm giving the fruit a long shelf life for strawberries. The plant is considered low growing and open, allowing good exposure to its fruit. The leaflets are large, dark rugose. The inflorescences are mostly long which also helps expose its fruit.

I claim: 
     
       1. The new and distinct strawberry plant herein described and illustrated, and identified by the characteristics enumerated above.
