The variety Magnus is a late variety<br />

from the breeding program of Flevo<br />

Berry. This variety has a ripening<br />

period app. 10 days after Florence/<br />

Faith with attractive berries, a good<br />

taste, and high in harvest. Magnus’<br />

berries are big and uniform in size,<br />

and tapered. The color of the fruit is<br />

a light to medium red with an attractive<br />

glow.<br />

Magnus convinces with a nice appearance<br />

in the punnet and a high<br />

percentage of class A berries.<br />

It blossoms shortly under foliage and<br />

can be picked well.<br />

The variety is very robust and high in<br />

yield. Therefore it should be planted<br />

with a slightly higher distance between<br />

the individual plants. Magnus<br />

is especially resistant to leave diseases.<br />

As with all late ripening varieties<br />

special attention should be paid<br />

to thrips and Blossum weivel ! Due to<br />

its yield, the firmness of the berries,<br />

and the light berry color Magnus is<br />

an interesting supplement for the late<br />

range in trade marketing.
