Fragaria × ananassa ‘Profruit’ is a June-bearing strawberry variety known for its high productivity and uniform fruit quality. This variety develops a vigorous and well-structured clump, particularly appreciated for growing in the ground in vegetable gardens or fruit rows. Its spring white blossoms lead to a concentrated harvest of attractive red strawberries, medium to large in size, offering firm, juicy, and very sweet flesh. The deciduous dark green foliage contributes to the plant's overall vigor and effectively protects the fruits during ripening. Well-adapted to Quebec's climatic conditions, ‘Profruit’ stands out for its reliability, hardiness, and excellent yield. It prefers a sunny exposure and rich, loose, well-drained soil, making it a reliable choice for abundant and easy-to-grow production.
