Strawberry 'Sparkle'
FamilyRosaceae
Fragaria × ananassa ‘Sparkle’ is a heritage June-bearing strawberry much appreciated for the intense, aromatic flavor of its fruit. This variety forms a vigorous, well-established clump, ideal for in-ground cultivation in the vegetable garden. Its white spring blossoms are followed by a concentrated production of bright red, medium-sized strawberries, renowned for their very juicy, sweet, and fragrant flesh. The dark green deciduous foliage effectively protects the fruit and supports excellent vegetative vigor. Particularly well-suited to Quebec’s climatic conditions, ‘Sparkle’ is known for its hardiness and reliability, even in cold climates. It prefers a sunny exposure and rich, loose, well-drained soil, making it an excellent choice for fresh eating, jams, and freezing.
