Strawberries - Our Most Popular Varieties, Crowns Ships in Spring

Strawberries have one more week! Get them while they last.

Strawberries are a tasty treat in early to late summer! They are very hardy able to withstand the cold of USDA Zone 3 with minimal protection and the heat of zone 8. We absolutely love them and each year we add a little more to our personal gardens - though Bonnie keeps mentioning she'd like a giant U-Pick field! We start shipping the last week of March to 2nd week of April as the weather determines when we have them delivered. 

Our Strawberries come in 2 types: June and Ever-bearing types. June bearing yielding strawberries typically will give all their fruit at once in May for the more sourthern zones and late June for the northern zones. Ever-bearing options produce a bit all summer long. 

• Allstar - June bearing, good disease ressitance and medium to large fruits.
• Eversweet - Ever-bearing, medium to large fruits, excellent for containers as they are very heat tolerant.
• Ft. Laramie - Everbearing with our largest sized fruits. They are very productive in both fruiting and runners.  They excel in hanging baskets and spaces where they are allowed to fill in. 
• Honeoye - June bearing with medium to large fruit. The strawberries are a little less sweet than others, and often are used for freezing and baking. Their long season nature for a June bearing strawberry is part of their wide appeal.
• Seascape - Ever bearing - (Zones 4-9) Excellent heat reistance but able to be grown in zones 4 versus 3. It is a day neutral strawberry and gives predictable yields all summer. 
• Flamingo - June Bearing - White berries that are super sweet. (Zones 4-9)

Strawberries are super easy to care for. Give them full sun to patial day sun and space to roam.  We like to plant ours in our garden beds, use for a edible groundcover in our landscaping and around the forest edges. Plant 1 crown every 8"-12" or 3 crowns in a 10" container. They like richer soil so do plan on adding compost with your plantings.
