  • Excellent resistance to pests and diseases, including resistance to Phytophthora fragaria var rubi, Didymella applanata and Large Raspberry Aphid.


SEASON AND PERFORMANCE

Enrosadira is a very early variety of primocane, which meets a market gap and expresses its full potential as a primocane.

The collection dates of 50% are constant in mid-August in the Northern European trials. Significantly earlier in warmer climates. In Northern Italy, Enrosadira starts at the end of May for the floricane and at the end of July for the primocane.

Yields of 1.2-1.4 kg per plant recorded by fresh plants in the sowing year, followed by 2.4 kg per plant in the second year (PC Fruit Belgium 2014).

Enrosadira is a variety patented by Vivai Molari
