Cultivars
Main Cultivars
Florida Brilliance. Released in 2017. High early yield; medium fruit size; uniform conic to broad-conic shape; very firm with excellent shelf life; externally very glossy red; light red internally; moderately resistant to rain damage; balanced flavor. The plant is robust but not overly vigorous; is upright with long stems, allowing ease of harvest; and does not require high N applications as Florida Medallion™ ‘FL 16.30-128’ does. Fruit can develop weak skin during hot periods in mid-late season, and both N rates and irrigation volumes should be reduced to counteract this possible problem. Recommended planting dates in central Florida are October 5–15. Resistant to anthracnose fruit rot and Colletotrichum crown rot; moderately to powdery mildew and charcoal rot; moderately susceptible to Botrytis fruit rot, angular leaf spot, and Colletotrichum crown rot; susceptible to Phytophthora root rot.
Florida Ember™ ‘FL 20.80-4’. Released in 2024. Medium to large fruit size; uniform conic fruit; bright red external color and light red to white internal color; low acid and high Brix similar to Medallion; robust plant with medium vigor; N rates similar to ‘Florida Brilliance’. Recommended planting dates Oct 1-15. Resistant to moderately susceptible to most diseases with no high susceptibilities; excellent choice for organic production; of the UF varieties the least susceptible to Neopestalotiopsis.
Florida Encore™ ‘FL 20.34-183’. Released in 2024. Large fruit size; glossy surface with even red external color and medium red internal color; moderate acid and Brix; firm flesh with excellent shelf life and shipping quality. Plant is vigorous with recommended planting dates from Oct 12-22; moderate N rates similar to or lower than for ‘Florida Brilliance’. Moderately susceptible to Colletotrichum crown rot and charcoal rot. Moderately resistant to anthracnose fruit rot and phytophthora crown rot.
Florida Medallion™ ‘FL 16.30-128’. Released in 2020. Medium size; extremely uniform, conic fruit with glossy appearance; glossy-red external color and medium-red internal color; moderately acidic and high Brix; moderately firm with good shipping quality. Low to medium plant vigor with upright canopy; N rates higher than for ‘Florida Brilliance’ will be required for optimum plant growth. Recommended planting dates in central Florida are October 1–10 due to a compact plant. Moderately susceptible to Colletotrichum crown rot and angular leaf spot; susceptible to Botrytis fruit rot, powdery mildew, and Phytophthora root rot; highly susceptible to charcoal rot and anthracnose fruit and root rots.
Sweet Sensation® Florida127. Released in 2013. Large fruit size; moderately uniform conic to broad-conic fruit; bright red with lighter color than other cultivars. Exceptional flavor throughout season; 1.0–1.5 degree Brix higher and slightly lower acidity than ‘Florida Brilliance’; susceptible to rain damage. The plant is vigorous, which may be an advantage in north Florida but in central Florida will require reduced nutrient applications early in the season and/or later planting dates to maintain a small plant size. Recommended N rates are lower than for ‘Florida Brilliance’. Recommended planting dates in central Florida are October 15–25. Resistant to anthracnose fruit rot and Colletotrichum crown rot; moderately resistant to charcoal rot; moderately susceptible to angular leaf spot; susceptible to Botrytis fruit rot and powdery mildew; highly susceptible to Phytophthora root rot. Ridomil and phosphite applications are highly recommended.
Minor Cultivars
Florida Pearl® ‘109’ and ‘66’. Released in 2020, the ‘109’ was the first white-fruited strawberry or “pineberry” released by UF/IFAS. It is the result of hybridization between descendants of Japanese white strawberries, the source of its unique color, and red Florida strawberries, the source of its yield, disease resistance, and other commercial production qualities. It has a pure white internal color and a white external base color with red seeds and a pink blush when ripe. It has a distinctive low-acid flavor and often has aromatic notes similar to those of pineapple or apricot. Fruit have moderate gloss and are uniform, conic, and less firm than red varieties. Fertilization rates of ‘109’ and ‘66’ should be similar to those of Sweet Sensation® ‘Florida127’ and ‘Florida Brilliance’, respectively. Recommended planting dates in central Florida are October 10–20. It has moderate resistance to most diseases. The ‘66’ was released in 2022 with improved early yield and firmness over the ‘109’ and also with more intense flavor. It otherwise has similar management needs except that it can be planted as early as October 5. The ‘66’ also has a good disease resistance profile with few weaknesses and is tolerant to diseases caused by Neopestalotiopsis sp.
The following tables list registered pesticides that should be integrated with other pest management methods. Additional information on integrated management methods can be requested from UF/IFAS Extension horticulture or agriculture agents.

Number codes are used to distinguish the main insecticide mode of action groups, with additional letters for certain subgroups within each main group. All insecticides within the same group (with the same number) indicate the same active ingredient or similar mode of action.

1FRAC code (fungicide group): Number (1–54) and letters are used to distinguish the fungicide mode of action groups. All fungicides within the same group (with the same number or letter) indicate the same active ingredient or similar mode of action. This information must be considered for the fungicide resistance management decisions.

Application Rates and Procedures |
|
Nimitz (a.i. fluensulfone) |
All applications must be incorporated either physically or via drip or overhead irrigation. Make preplant applications at a rate of 3.5–7 pt/A (56.0–80.0 fl oz/A) a minimum of 7 days before planting. Do not plant any unlisted crops into treated land for 365 days after application of the product. No more than 1 application per crop, and no more than 112 fl oz/A per year (365 days). Provides control only for nematodes. Growers applying Nimitz must consult the product label to observe the plant-back (recropping) intervals for a variety of leafy vegetables and brassica crops, onions, bananas, sugarcane, and other crops. |
|
Velum (a.i. fluopyram) |
Apply max 6.84 fl oz/A using only chemigation into root zone through low-pressure drip, trickle, microsprinkler, or equivalent equipment. Reapplications at least 7 days apart. No more than 13.7 fl oz/A of Velum (0.446 lb/A fluopyram) per year, regardless of formulation (Velum and/or Luna) or method of application (soil or foliar). For soil application, to limit the potential for development of disease resistance to this chemical class, the first foliar fungicide application after Velum should be a product from a different FRAC group. |
|
Biological nematicides |
See chapter 19. |
|
Velum is a fungicide/nematicide; Nimitz is a true nematicide. Unlike fumigants, these products are not volatile and will move through the soil via water; depending on the water solubility, these products will have different recommendations for how to best apply them (see specific label recommendations); when nematode pressure is high, they may not be as consistently effective against root nematodes as the fumigants. | |

1Gallons/acre and fl oz/1000 feet provided only for mineral soils. Higher rates may be possible for heavier-textured (loam, silt, clay) or highly organic soils. 2All of the fumigants mentioned are for retail sale and use only by state-certified applicators or persons under their direct supervision. New supplemental labeling for the Telone products must be in the hands of the user at the time of application. See label details for additional use restrictions based on soil characteristics, buffer zones, requirements for personal protective equipment (PPE), mandatory good agricultural practices (GAPs), product and applicator training certification, and rate-modifying recommendations with use of highly retentive Totally Impermeable mulch films (TIF). 3Higher application rates are possible in the presence of cyst-forming nematodes. Rates are believed to be correct for products named, and similar products of other brand names, when applied to mineral soils. Higher rates are required for muck (organic) soils. However, the grower has the final responsibility to see that each product is used legally; read the label of the product to be sure that you are using it properly. | |||
