Abstract
A new and distinct variety of strawberry denominated "Mara Des Bois" is the offspring of (Gento×Ostara)×(Red Gauntlet×Korona). It is a remontant variety but has strong Spring production, as well as the remarkable scent of wild strawberries.
Description
This invention relates to a new and distinct variety of strawberry denominated "MARA DES BOIS".
The new strawberry of the present invention is a member of the species Fragaria L. and is the offspring of (Gento×Ostara)×(Red Gauntlet×Korona), and it is particularly notable and distinguished from its ancestors in the remarkable fragrance of its fruit which is similar to wild strawberries, and its unusually strong Spring production of fruit in spite of its remontance.
FIG. 1 is closeup photograph of a bunch of fruit, including ripe fruit and unripe fruit;
FIG. 2 is a photograph taken further away than FIG. 1, showing leaves, flowers unripe fruit and ripe fruit; and
FIG. 3 is a closeup photograph showing leaves, flowers, three whole ripe fruit, a ripe fruit cut longitudinally and a ripe fruit cut horizontally.
The following detailed description provides various characteristics of the plant.
The present strawberry is particularly characterized in that it is fully remontant, but still with strong production in the Spring. In addition, the fruit has the remarkable fragrance of wild strawberries.
The new cultivar is a product of a planned breeding program which base objective was to create a new everbearing variety having good color, good shape, good productivity and mostly good taste.
The following observations, measurements and values describe plants grown in Soings En Sologne, France, under conditions which closely approximate those generally used in commercial practice.
Parents: (Gento×Ostara)×(Red Gauntlet×Korona).
Place of Crossing: Soings En Sologne - France.
The first selected plant was asexually propagated by tissue culturing from the cross. The specimens of the variety derived from this tissue culturing were then propagated in a nursery by the production of runners.
