Fragaria × ananassa ‘Merlin’ is a June-bearing strawberry known for its vigor, reliability, and consistent production quality. This variety forms a robust, well-developed clump, particularly well-suited for cultivation in the open ground of a vegetable garden. Its white spring blossoms are followed by a concentrated harvest of attractive, medium to large red strawberries with firm, juicy, and very sweet flesh. The deciduous dark green foliage effectively protects the fruits and supports excellent vegetative vigor. Well-adapted to Quebec’s climatic conditions, ‘Merlin’ is appreciated for its hardiness and consistency year after year. It prefers a sunny exposure and rich, loose, well-drained soil to ensure optimal yield. This cultivar is a reliable choice for gardeners seeking an abundant and easy-to-grow production.
