Strawberry plant named PS-776

Abstract

This invention relates to a new and distinct winter planted short-day-type variety of strawberry known as `PS-776`. This new variety is primarily adapted to the growing conditions of the central coast of California. The new variety is particularly characterized by its small round leaves with many shallow serrations, long inflorescences which are easily visible above the canopy of the plant much of the season, very uniformly smooth shaped berries and its ability to remain in fruit production from mid to late April through November. The fruit is very attractive with acceptable flavor and juiciness as well as excellent firmness and holding quality.

We claim: 
     
       1. A new and distinct variety of strawberry plant designated `PS-776`, as herein described and illustrated.
