Strawberries




We have been growing strawberries again this year, and I am pleased with our results.  We have only 7 plants in containers and they are all of the everbearing variety, so we have been getting a steady, though small, supply of berries for the last 2 months.  Our plants are still producing berries.  In fact, they are still flowering, so we may continue getting berries for some time to come.  I am super excited that in the last weeks they have begun sending out runners.  You can see some of them in the above picture, taken Saturday. I am hoping to be able to make an entire raised bed (4 X 8) just for strawberries.
