Our delicious strawberries are super easy to grow and great for containers or hanging baskets!  They grow best in fertile, well-drained soil with full sun. Strawberry plants are grown usually for 3 years. In the first year the plant is propagated from runners off a parent plant and will produce a few strawberries. In the second year, the plant will have its most abundant crop, and after the third year the yield will slow down. It is advisable to replace the plant with a younger specimen at this point. Our plants are in their first or second year, depending on what time of year you order them.

What to do when your plants arrive

  1. Unpack them. Your seedlings will arrive carefully packed in bio-degradable straw, cardboard and paper. They may look a little bit bedraggled from their journey. Don’t panic – this is totally normal and they should soon perk up. Please try and unpack your plants as soon as they arrive, as every extra hour they spend in the box will add to the stress of travelling to their new home.
  2. Give them a drink. Having spent a day or two in the post, your new plants will be thirsty! Stand them up in some fresh water for a few minutes to make sure their roots have been thoroughly soaked before planting.
  3. Plant them out into their forever home! Your plants can’t wait to get their roots into the soil. Plant them out according to the instructions that will have come in the box with them. Make sure you water them in well, and give them plenty to drink until their roots have had a chance to get settled.
