Abstract
A new and distinct variety of strawberry plant of the short-day type primarily charcterized as an early fruiter in both winter and summer plantings in south and central coastal California. Runner production in nursery plantings is considered excellent and exceeds 'Tioga'. Flowers are self fertile with little malformed fruit which otherwise is long conic to long flat wedgy and usually solid. The variety has flavor comparable to the best flavored varieties used in California and fruit is much firmer than 'Douglas' making the variety suitable for fresh and processing markets.
