Narrative
Fruit: medium to large, shape very uniform, skin medium to dark red right to the core, flesh mildly subacid with rich flavor, excellent for jam, good for canning and satisfactory for fresh market and freezing.Plant: hardy, deep-rooted and moderately vigorous, susceptible to red stele, mildew and fruit rots, but shows some tolerance to root rots. Was the standard variety in British Columbia for many years, but now only grown to a very limited extent.Brooks and Olmo, 1972.British Sovereign was found in a planting of Magoon in British Columbia and introduced in 1923. It is one of the two main varieties in British Columbia (Northwest is the other) because of its large, attractive high-flavored firm fruit and is about 40% of the total. Limitations: it is not well adapted to freezing and is susceptible to red stele and mildew. It is said to resemble the Sir Joseph Paxton.George M. Darrow. 1966. The Strawberry. p. 160.
