Origin & Breeding History: 'EMR 20172' originated from an open pollinated cross in Kent, United Kingdom in August 2004. Seed was germinated in 2005 and resultant seedlings were evaluated in an open field in Kent, United Kingdom in 2006 and 2007. From the resulting progeny, 'EMR 20172' was selected in late August 2009 based on its early primocane fruiting crop and fruit quality characteristics including pale red colour, sweetness and size. Since its selection, 'EMR 20172' was trialed in containers and in various field locations.

Tests & Trials: The detailed description of 'EMR 20172' is based on the UPOV report of Technical Examination, application number 20170262, purchased from the Community Plant Variety Office in Angers, France. The trial was conducted by the Research Centre for Cultivar Testing at the Experimental Substation for Cultivar Testing in Maslowicach, Poland from 2017 to 2019.
