This gorgeous little plant features rose coloured flowers that bloom amongst glossy, dark green foliage. The flowers are followed by small, oblong, super sweet strawberries that produce until frost. These ever-bearing plants produce generous runners so they are very easy to propagate. Harvest every 3-4 days as keeping the plants picked will ensure the plant produces new fruit. This variety was bred for container growing and will add both colour and tasty treats to hanging baskets, patio containers, and window boxes.

| Starting |
Seal strawberry seed packets in a plastic bag or airtight container and place in the refrigerator for 3-4 weeks. Remove the bag or container from the refrigerator and allow the seeds to reach room temperature over a day or two before breaking the seal. Opening the package too quickly may result in water condensing on the cold seeds, and this will reduce your chances of success. Then, sow the seeds on the surface of pre-moistened, seed starting mix in trays or small containers. Keep the seeded trays under bright fluorescent lights at a constant temperature of 18-24°C (65-75°F). Ensure the seed starting mix stays moist. Once seeds germinate, increase ventilation to prevent damping off. |
| Growing |
When seedlings have their third true leaf, they can be transplanted into their own pots. Be sure to harden the seedlings off gradually before transplanting outside. Space transplants 60cm (24”) apart in rows 90-120cm (36-48”) apart. Grow strawberries in a well-drained, sandy loam that has been generously dug with organic matter such as finished compost or well-rotted manure. Dig 60mL (1/4 cup) complete organic fertilizer into the soil beneath each transplant. Keep soil moist, but not soggy. A mulch of straw around plants may help prevent the soil from drying out. |
