Description
The everbearing strawberry bears small, intensely fragrant berries from June to frost, which are much more aromatic than large garden strawberries. It produces very few runners and remains compact, making it ideal for raised beds and pots. Varieties such as "Rügen" are especially productive and robust.
Care instructions
Sow the everbearing strawberry from February (week 8) on a windowsill before or plant finished seedlings from May into a sunny spot in loamy soil. Water evenly and mulch so the berries stay clean. It bears fruit all summer; pick the red berries regularly, then it will flower again.
