Benton (Spring Crop)
Oregon State University release. Named after Benton County where O.S.U. is located in Corvallis, Oregon.
June bearing variety, fruit is very bright, excellent keeping quality, conic in shape, and the flavor is very good.
The fruit is medium to large in size and is recommended for all parts of the Pacific Northwest.
Benton appears to have excellent winter hardiness. Benton also has excellent fruit quality and vigorous growth.
Upright habit makes Benton a good bet for home gardeners as well as the commercial grower. More drought resistant than Rainier.
Virus tolerant. Also tolerant to Red Stele. Ripens late.
Hood (Spring Crop)
Released in 1965 from Oregon State University. The large round (Globose) berry is considered to have the best table quality, now that the old Marshall (Vintage 1912) is no longer being propagated.
Hood is known best as a fine preserve and jam berry, and is good for all other uses.
Resistant to Root Rot, Mildew, and Red Stele but is quite susceptible to virus and should not be planted near strawberries known to be virused.
Bears entire crop over a short period. Popular home garden variety. Not particularly winter hardy.
Shuksan (Spring Crop)
A Washington Release. Large and glossy bright red fruit with slightly indented yellowish red seeds.
Medium firm meaty flesh with good flavor. Good for fresh eating and excellent for freezing.
The plant is large and very vigorous. Also produces runners freely. Shuksan is winter hardy and tolerates Alkaline soils better than any other variety.
We recommend this variety for colder areas of the Pacific Northwest above all other varieties. Shuksan is good news for Idaho, Colorado, Utah, etc..
Totem is winter hardy also, but Shuksan blooms a little later, thus protecting the fruit from late frosts. Virus tolerant and Red Stele resistant. Does not demand perfect drainage.
Puget Reliance (Spring Crop)
Recent release from Washington State. Very high yield potential. Softer juicy berries may become a home garden favorite. Large soft fruit comparable to Hood.
