'Natsuotome' is a new everbearing strawberry cultivar released by the Tochigi Strawberry Research Center in 2011. This cultivar is harvested throughout the summer and autumn seasons, it has few flowers per inflorescence, does not have very thin inflorescences, and has a yield higher than that of the Tochihitomi cultivar. The fruits are cone shaped with vivid red skin. The sugar content and hardness of the fruits are similar to that of Tochititomi while their citric acid content is lower. The resistance to strawberry anthracnose, Fusarium wilt, and strawberry powdery mildew are higher in 'Natsuotome' than in Tochihitomi. In addition, the productivity of 'Natsuotome' is also higher than that of Tochihitomi between 200 to 800 meters of altitude.
