Jewel---(Plant Patent #5897) (Senga Sengana x NY E4-58)--Of the newer varieties in today's Strawberry Industry, Jewel appears to be the BEST ALL AROUND variety. Good for u-pick, fresh shipping and longer season yields. It produces large, firm, wedge-shaped fruit of excellent color and quality. Jewel's firmness and abrasive resistant skin makes it less susceptible to fruit rots and ideal for shipping. A must for all serious growers!

Kent--(Redgauntlet x Tioga x Rasitac)--A winter-hardy variety from Canada with high yield potential producing large, good quality berries. Excellent for all seasons and above average flavor. Kent prides itself on very good plant vigor, but has no resistance to red stele or verticillium wilt.
