In response to the renewed interest in white strawberries the lead breeder, Dr. Klaus Olbricht at Hansabred, Dresden, has released a new and much improved selection.
Snow White is a vigorous selection, much higher yielding than existing white fruited varieties, producing attractive, medium sized, uniform and conical berries. This selection is June-bearing and ripens mid-season. It is winter hardy and has excellent disease resistance/tolerance. The flavour is characteristic of white fruited strawberries being very aromatic with a unique fresh fruit flavour reminiscent of pineapple.
