Plant description

Pollinator's are attracted to the semi-double rose and red blooms complemented by the purity of single whites in this trio of edible and highly ornamental, blossoming strawberries.

What's included:

In each collection you will receive one 9cm pot of each of the following:

'Summer Breeze Cherry' F1: Striking rose-like red-pink blooms make this ornamental strawberry stand out from typical fruiting types. Bred for both looks and yield, this everbearing, cultivated variety produces sweet fruit from early summer into August. It’s ideal for growing in containers, baskets or window boxes where space is limited. Grows to 30cm.

'Summer Breeze Rose' F1: This striking strawberry combines ornamental value with reliable crops of sweet fruit. It produces masses of long-lasting, bright rose-pink double flowers that bring colour from spring onwards and are highly attractive to pollinators. The flowers hold their petals well, ensuring a prolonged display before the fruit sets. Medium-sized berries with a lovely sweet flavour follow, ripening steadily from June through to September. Grows to 30cm.

'Delizz' F1: A compact and productive strawberry perfect for containers, borders or hanging baskets, this cultivated variety produces sweet, aromatic fruit held cleanly above the foliage. Plants form neat clumps, ideal for large pots, with bright green leaves and white flowers that attract pollinators. The conical, medium-sized berries ripen to a bright red and stay clean thanks to their upright stems. Grows to 30cm.

How to care for Colourful flowering strawberry collection:

Plants purchased as runners are sent out as dormant bare root plants and should be planted out within a couple of days of arrival. Soak the plants in tepid water for 20 minutes to rehydrate their roots while you dig holes twice the width of the root system. Place the strawberries with the crown level with the crown level with the soil and spread the roots before filling in the hole, incorporating plenty of organic matter.

Plants purchased in pots, and as runners, can be spaced at 45cm (18in) apart, leaving 75cm (30in) between rows. Water thoroughly after planting and mulch around the base, avoiding the crown - they will put on new growth in spring. During warm weather and fruit growth, ensure plants are well-watered. Prevent fruit contact with soil by using a thick layer of straw, or re-usable strawberry collar around each plant. Strawberries can also be planted in tubs, containers and hanging baskets.

Please note:

This perennial is semi-evergreen so it can lose some of its leaves in winter. In colder regions or more exposed gardens, it may lose them all, but then fresh new growth appears again in spring.

Which plants need cloching?

Frost tender plants can be encouraged to grow far more quickly under cloches and one group of plants, the cucurbits, benefit from the extra warmth overnight. This allows them to photosynthesise for longer and squash, courgette and outdoor cucumber plants
