`UV601` is a spring bearing variety which produces attractive dark colored crown and main crop fruit from April to October when grown as a winter planted variety on the coast of central California and when adequately chilled before and after planting. The crop is early in maturing and in Florida ripens in December. `UV601` has consistently firm skin and flesh, a large attractive calyx and good strawberry flavor. The variety is further characterized by its cordate-shaped leaflet serrations, acute at the apex, its purpling of leaf parts after the crown crop and its large calyx.
