Description

Allstar lives up to its name — a top-performing June-bearing strawberry with an exceptional combination of large glossy fruit, reliably sweet flavor, and one of the most comprehensive disease resistance packages available in a home strawberry variety. Vigorous, cold hardy in Zones 4–8, and easy to care for, it’s an excellent choice for growers who want consistent, high-quality strawberries without intensive disease management.

Large, Glossy, Perfect-Shaped Berries With Sweet Flavor

Allstar’s fruit is genuinely beautiful — large, glossy, firm, and perfectly shaped with the classic symmetrical strawberry form that makes them as attractive in a bowl as they are satisfying to eat. The flavor is mild and sweet with a clean, classic strawberry taste that’s outstanding for fresh eating and exceptional for freezing and preserves. The firm texture means the berries hold their shape after picking and freeze beautifully without turning mushy.

Five-Way Disease Resistance — The Most Protected Strawberry You Can Grow

Allstar’s disease resistance package is remarkable. It resists verticillium wilt, leaf scorch, powdery mildew, and red stele — four of the most common and damaging strawberry diseases — and tolerates botrytis rot on top of that. For home growers who want a healthy, productive strawberry bed without a demanding spray program, that five-way protection translates directly into healthier plants, cleaner fruit, and more consistent harvests year after year.

Vigorous and Productive — Plant Plenty for Preserving

Allstar is a highly vigorous variety that rewards generous planting. The plants produce abundantly in June and send out strong runners that fill in a strawberry bed efficiently. With yields this consistent and fruit this firm, it’s an ideal variety for making large batches of preserves, jams, and frozen strawberries — plan to plant extra for the pantry.
