Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of strawberry plant (Fragariaxananassa) named 'NJ8607-2', which is a short day cultivar similar to 'Earliglow', but which is exceptional for its early season harvest of very attractive large fruit, good shelf-life, and high productivity, combined with good horticultural qualities and good disease resistance. The plant is well adapted to matted-row, ribbon-row, and high density planting systems, and performs consistently in diverse environments. The fruit size is larger than that of 'Earliglow', the major cultivar in its season.
