One of our favorite extended-season varieties! Ideal for those who wish to enjoy fresh strawberries throughout the summer and into fall, these day-neutral, everbearing plants are perfect for extended harvesting.

Albion strawberries produce large, deep red, conical berries known for their firm, sweet flesh. These berries are exceptional for fresh eating as well as for use in pies, preserves, or freezing, providing versatile culinary options. They thrive in warmer climates and are self-pollinating, making them an excellent choice for gardeners who appreciate convenience and productivity.

This variety is notably resistant to verticillium wilt, phytophthora crown rot, and some anthracnose crown rot, enhancing their sustainability and reducing the need for chemical interventions. Albion strawberries require a strong watering regime, particularly with nitrogen, to maintain their high yield. For optimal fruit size, it is recommended to space the plants wider than usual.
