Family Rosaceae

Fragaria × ananassa ‘Montana’ is a June-bearing strawberry variety prized for its hardiness, vigor, and reliable production in cold climates. This variety develops a robust and well-established clump, ideal for growing in the ground in the vegetable garden or in fruit rows. Its white spring blossoms are followed by a concentrated harvest of attractive, good-sized red strawberries, offering juicy, sweet, and pleasant-tasting flesh. The dark green deciduous foliage effectively protects the fruits and contributes to the plant's overall health. Well-suited to Quebec conditions, 'Montana' stands out for its cold tolerance and consistency from year to year. It prefers a sunny exposure and rich, loose, well-drained soil, making it a safe choice for simple and efficient production.
