Strawberry

Strawberries are incredibly easy to grow, and they take up little space, so are great in containers and even hanging baskets.

Strawberry plants will flower during the warmer months of the year with fruit being ready to pick 3-6 weeks after that.  Most varieties will produce multiple crops a year provided they are well fed and watered.

Strawberries require plenty of water but hate wet leaves. Water plants early in the day so that leaves and fruit dry off quickly to help deter fungal diseases developing. Remove any dead or tatty leaves to improve airflow.

*Pot sold separately.

*As plants are natural products, form, pattern and colour will vary slightly.
