Plant Information
Top Tips
- Pick your strawberries first thing in the morning, when fruit is at its juiciest, and pick only ripe red fruit as orange berries won’t have developed their full flavour.
- Pick the strawberries carefully, complete with their stalks and green calyxes.
Care Guide
- Strawberry plants need a good six to eight hours of full sun a day for optimal fruit production, so place your pot somewhere sunny.
- Strawberry containers should be watered daily and will need regular feeding (once a month until blooming) due to the limited amount of nutrients in the pot.
- Water regularly to prevent the plants drying out. When watering, try not to get the fruit wet.
- Feed your strawberry pot at least once a month until flowering and then every ten days with a liquid feed that is high in potassium and low in nitrogen.
- Fruit should be picked as soon as berries are red, if possible, in dry weather, taking care to leave the green stalk in place once fruit is picked.

Delivered in a timely manner. Once received watered them and next day potted up. Several just died, whilst the rest appear to be doing Ok.
Pity that i paid for the tomatoes, but I do not have all the plants now.
