Why Choose Bare Root Strawberries?

• Fast Establishment: Bare root plants settle quickly into new soil, developing strong roots and healthy foliage.
• Cost-Effective: Planting bare roots allows you to grow multiple plants at a fraction of the cost of potted specimens.
• Diverse Harvest: Enjoy a succession of fruit from late spring through summer, depending on the variety mix included.

Planting & Growing Guide

• Best Time to Plant: Late autumn to early spring, while plants are dormant.
• Soil: Prefers well-drained soil rich in organic matter. Avoid waterlogged areas.
• Light Requirements: Thrives in full sun but will tolerate partial shade.
• Spacing: Allow at least 30cm between plants for good airflow and healthy growth.
• Cropping: Expect fruit production from late spring onwards; everbearers may crop again later in summer.

Caring for Your Strawberry Plants

• Irrigation: Keep soil consistently moist but not soggy, especially during flowering and fruiting periods.
• Feeding: Apply a balanced fertiliser in early spring and after the first harvest to encourage repeat cropping.
• Pest & Disease Management: Netting may be used to protect fruit from birds. Remove old leaves after cropping to reduce disease risk.
• Pruning: Cut back runners if you want larger berries or let them root for more plants next year.

Add Sweetness & Colour to Any Space

• Beds & Borders: Integrate with herbs like basil or chives for companion planting benefits.
• Pots & Hanging Baskets: Perfect for patios, balconies, or small gardens—just ensure good drainage.
• Grow Bags: Ideal if space is limited or you want easy access to your crop.
