Ozark Beauty is an everbearing strawberry introduced in Arkansas in the 1950s and one of the most popular everbearing varieties for home gardens. Rather than a single flush, it produces two main crops, a heavy one in spring and another in late summer to fall, with scattered berries in between. The medium to large berries are bright red, sweet and honey-like, excellent for fresh eating, freezing and preserves. The hardy, adaptable plants send out moderate runners and perform across a wide range of climates. Ozark Beauty is prized by backyard growers who want more than one harvest from a single planting and value its rich flavor and dependable, long-standing garden reputation.
