Care guide

Plants purchased as runners are sent out as dormant bare root plants and should be planted out within a couple of days of arrival. Soak the plants in tepid water for 20 minutes to rehydrate their roots while you dig holes twice the width of the root system. Place the strawberries with the crown level with the crown level with the soil and spread the roots before filling in the hole, incorporating plenty of organic matter.

Plants purchased in pots, and as runners, can be spaced at 45cm (18in) apart, leaving 75cm (30in) between rows. Water thoroughly after planting and mulch around the base, avoiding the crown - they will put on new growth in spring. During warm weather and fruit growth, ensure plants are well-watered. Prevent fruit contact with soil by using a thick layer of straw, or re-usable strawberry collar around each plant. Strawberries can also be planted in tubs, containers and hanging baskets.

Features

In each collection you will receive 5 runners each of the following:

  • 'Honeoye':The proven standard early strawberry variety, fruiting 4 - 6 days earlier than 'Elsanta'. Bright, shiny, good quality fruits are produced in abundance from mid-June to mid-July - and because it's often grown on 'Pick Your Own 'farms, you can tell it's a good cropper with a high percentage large fruit. Grows to 15cm.
  • 'Cambridge Favourite:This is one of the most well-known and loved strawberry varieties available. It is a reliable cropper, has good all-round disease resistance and performs well on a wide range of soils and growing conditions. It produces medium-sized, orange-red fruit from mid-June, which hold
  • 'Symphony (PBR)':Bred by the Scottish Crop Research Institute, this variety will produce super market quality fruits that keep well. They have a uniform shape, well coloured flesh and a very tasty flavour. The plants are strong-growing and have a good resistance to mildew. Grows to 30cm.
