AC Wendy Strawberry
Home GardenerMeet AC Wendy! This productive variety has vibrantly colored wedge-shaped berries offering an exceptional fresh flavor. AC Wendy is best for gardeners with some strawberry experience because, while moderately resistant to powdery mildew and botrytis, they do require extra care as they are susceptible to Verticillium wilt and red stele. Because it flowers early, AC Wendy is also vulnerable to frost damage, so frost protection may need to be provided. AC Wendy thrives best in lighter soils.
