Abstract

A strawberry plant producing large conical fruit on a vigorous plant having good rooting capacity.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This disclosure involves a newly developed strawberry, Fragaria Xannanassa Duch. plant, which has been denominated `Darselct` for purposes of international recognition. The new variety of strawberry was created by my crossing as female parent the variety known as `Elsanta` and as male parent the variety known as `Parker`.
The new variety was grown and asexually reproduced by runners and micropropagation. The plant of this invention is the resulting selection, from the stated cross, which was based on a novel and superior combination of characteristics which will be disclosed infra, as well as depicted in the drawing. The combination of characteristics reflects the novelty of this plant and of its potentially advantageous use in the production of commercial strawberry fruit as well as in planned breeding programs for the development of further superior varieties. Asexual propagation and testing in Milly La Foret, France, has demonstrated that the combination of traits disclosed herein which characterize the new variety are fixed and retained true-to-type through successive generations of asexual reproduction.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct strawberry variety. The varietal denomination of the new variety is `Darselect`. Among the characteristics which distinguish the new variety from other varieties of which I am aware are a combination of traits which include vigorous growth habit, good rooting capacity, large conical fruit with firm skin, early ripening and long harvest time. The new variety is not ever bearing. The new strawberry plant `Darselect` is a short day responsive plant.
Comparison to Closest Variety
The new variety is closest to the variety `Elsanta`, but is distinguished therefrom by producing a more erect plant, longer petioles, larger fruit and more homogenous skin color than `Elsanta`.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF ILLUSTRATION
The accompanying photographs show typical specimens of the new variety, including fruit, foliage and flower, in color as nearly true as it is reasonably possible to make in color illustrations of this character.
FIGS. 1 and 2 show typical fruit and fruit in cross section, and illustrate the flesh, flesh coloration, and conical shape.
FIGS. 3 and 4 show plants of the new variety, plants with fruit, and foliage.
DESCRIPTION OF THE NEW VARIETY
The following detailed description of the new variety is based upon observations taken of plants and fruit grown outdoors in Milly La Foret, France, in June.
