Giant Strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa) – Premium Seeds from Deodar Seeds
Giant Strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa) is an extraordinary strawberry variety known for its exceptionally large, sweet, and aromatic fruits. Developed through selective breeding, this variety produces berries significantly larger than standard strawberries, making it highly sought after by home gardeners and commercial growers alike. Strawberries have a long history, dating back to ancient Rome, and today they are one of the most beloved fruits worldwide.
Plant Characteristics
This perennial plant forms compact, vigorous green foliage, with serrated leaves and delicate white flowers with yellow centers appearing in early spring. The berries are remarkably large, reaching 7–10 cm (2.7–4 inches) in length and weighing 50–120 grams (1.8–4.2 oz) per fruit, depending on growing conditions. The deep red fruits have a glossy exterior and a firm, juicy texture. The plant is high-yielding, continuously producing fruit throughout the season.
Taste and Health Benefits
Giant Strawberries have a rich, sweet flavor with a balanced acidity, making them incredibly refreshing. They are packed with vitamin C, antioxidants, fiber, and essential minerals, promoting immune support, heart health, and improved digestion. Their naturally high water content makes them hydrating and low in calories, ideal for a healthy diet.
Cultivation Guidelines
This variety thrives in temperate to subtropical climates, requiring full sun (6–8 hours daily) and well-draining, nutrient-rich soil (pH 5.5–6.5). Seeds should be cold stratified for 3–4 weeks before sowing to improve germination. After stratification, plant in moist soil, keeping temperatures between 18–25°C (64–77°F). Germination occurs within 2–4 weeks. Regular watering is essential, but avoid overwatering to prevent root rot. Strawberries begin producing fruit within 4–6 months after planting, with peak harvests occurring in early summer.
Uses and Applications
These giant strawberries are perfect for fresh consumption, desserts, jams, smoothies, and salads. Their size and vibrant appearance make them a standout ingredient in cakes, chocolate coatings, and gourmet fruit platters. Additionally, strawberries are widely used in natural skincare for their brightening and antioxidant properties.
