The best tasting of the everbearing strawberries (and a great-tasting berry, period), ‘Tribute’ produces a large crop of medium-size, firm, deep red fruit over a long period. Its superb flavor makes it an excellent fresh-eating and dessert berry, and its firm texture ensures that it also freezes well. ‘Tribute’ is a much better tasting and producing berry than ‘Ozark Beauty’. It is excellent for the garden, strawberry jar or patio pot. From a spring planting you’ll get a late crop the first year and a full-season crop there after. Plants are resistant to red stele and verticillium wilt. Zones 3-8.
