Breeder's Description

Day Neutral, Large, Attractive Fruit

Head Licence & Worldwide Marketing Rights for UPOV Countries, excluding Australia & New Zealand held by MEIOSIS

Parentage

Lowanna resulted from a cross between Selva and breeding line 89-064-1 made in 1992 at the Institute for Horticultural Development, Knoxfield, Victoria, Australia, and tested under the selection number 92-021-433.

Fruit Quality

Berries are large and very attractive, uniformly red in colour and very glossy. Shape is uniformly conical which allows a very consistent presentation of punnets. Flesh colour is light red throughout and quite firm being similar to Selva. The calyx is spreading, about the diameter as the fruit and detaches easily.
