Description / Fragaria 'Albion' Strawberry
Fragaria 'Albion' Strawberry is a day neutral, everbearing strawberry that produces large, firm, conical red berries from late spring until the first frost. Because day length does not affect its flowering, 'Albion' keeps fruiting continuously through the season instead of delivering a single crop. White flowers with yellow centers give way to symmetrical, bright red berries, and the plants resist verticillium wilt and Phytophthora crown rot while showing relative resistance to anthracnose crown rot.
This pack of 20 bareroot plants is ideal for home gardens, mass plantings, and containers, and it suits small spaces well. Plants form low mounds about 18 inches tall and wide and send out runners. For companion planting, try borage, chives, thyme, lettuce, spinach, sweet alyssum, or calendula alongside your strawberry bed. Bees visit the flowers, helping with pollination.
Grow 'Albion' in full sun in fertile, organic rich, well drained sandy loam with a neutral pH. Keep the soil evenly moist through the growing season. Remove runners to direct the plant's energy into fruit production. Hardy in Zones 4 to 9, plants may remain evergreen in frost free areas. Its day neutral habit and season long harvest of large, firm berries make 'Albion' a standout for gardeners who want fresh strawberries from late spring to frost.
