Strawberry variety Sonata

A proven variety for mid-season harvest

The strawberry variety Sonata is a viable alternative to Elsanta for mid-season ripening. Its fruits are uniformly well-shaped, with good size and firmness. The fruit is sweet with a typical strawberry aroma and a beautiful sheen. This variety differs from Elsanta in its higher blossom set and uniform fruit size. While the skin is firm, it is somewhat susceptible to bruising. Sonata produces very good yields, though slightly lower than Elsanta. Sonata is more resistant to powdery mildew than Elsanta. When cultivating it, attention should be paid to its susceptibility to Phytophthora cactorum. Sonata is well-suited for use in a timed cropping system, as a waiting bed plant, or in refrigerated storage (Frigo A+).
