| 0 | PI 551434 | 'Narcissa' | Fragaria ×ananassa Duchesne ex Rozier | Maryland, United States | COR | | Not Available | 1983 | DEVELOPED | 1933 | | | | | Cultivar | The NARCISSA (USDA 520) strawberry is also being introduced by the United States Department of Agriculture, in Cooperation with the Oregon State Agricultural College for trial in Oregon and Washington. It originated from a cross of Royal Sovereign and Howard 17 (Premier) made in 1923 at the United States Plant Field Station near Glenn Dale, Md. It was selected in 1925.Though the plants were healthy, vigorous, and productive, and the fruit of exceptional dessert quality, the fruit was attacked by the leather-rot fungus, Phytophthora cactorum, a rare berry disease, at Glenn Dale, Md., and has not been widely tested in the East. However, in Oregon it has not only been outstanding in yield, dessert quality, and vigor of plant, but has been especially resistant to fruit rots. As compared with Marshall, the plants are more disease resistant and the berries slightly earlier, much more uniform in size and shape, some-what smaller, and better in dessert quality. It is therefore recom-mended for the Northwest.
