The winter hardiness of 24 strawberry ( Fragaria x ananassaDuch.) cultivars in a field trial planted in August 1996 was evaluated following 1996/97 winter temperatures of -12 °C with no snow cover. Significant differences among cultivars for winter hardiness were expressed by the number of dead or damaged plants. 'Senga Sengana,' 'Korona,' 'Polka,' 'Petrina' and 'Honeoye' were the most winter-hardy cultivars, whereas 'Burlington,' 'Hapil' and 'Evita' showed very low winter hardiness. A significant positive correlation was shown between winter hardiness and general plant vigor.
