‘Malling Centenary’ still continues to play a blinder in terms of a quality strawberry. Maiden crops and second-year overwintered ones have cropped very well. The crop has so far performed very well under both regimes with good yields of very high-quality fruit. At the moment the crop is continuing to produce new flowers and fruit.
This is very unusual for a June bearing plant whose fruiting season typically last for between six to eight weeks. This extension of the season may be caused by heating the crop and may offer huge extra crop potential to those in a position to heat their glasshouses. ✽
