Questions & Answers
They are looser, lighter and drain faster than clay, but with more organic material and nutrients than sandy soils. Kind of in-between, best of both worlds.
This is a June-bearing strawberry.
Hi Susieq,
We love the Allstar strawberries, but we have no experience growing them in a pot, we only planted them in a row on raised beds. I will tell you that they spread out very nicely! Good luck
You will get a few berries, but you're better off to pinch the flowers and let the plant give you a good crop next year. It's hard to do, but will serve you better in the long run.
This plant does not have red blooms. They are white.
They do fantastically well. Mine are in raised beds that get covered with snow
all winter with temps down to zero. They come back each year in great shape.
This the second year and we have over a half dozen gallon bags in the freezer, we have been
eating them fresh all summer and my wife has made up a dozen jars of jam as well. They
are a great strawberry as is much of what Start's sells. Ron W
I did a mixture of top
Soil and compost in bed, but clay is below all that. They are doing very well
I'm in zone 8a and have planted in the fall, then mulched with straw, and they did just fine...no fruit but didn't die off, so was very strong by spring.
We appreciate you reaching out to us. Because weather and soil conditions vary so much from year to year and even within your zone, it's best to think of your planting time as a range of favorable conditions instead of an exact time.
You can plant new plants and trees:
1) when the ground is not frozen.
2) when daytime temperatures are above freezing (32ºF) and below 90ºF.
3) when extreme weather (blizzard, hail, torrential rain, etc.) is not in the forecast. Be sure to keep plants watered if you're transplanting in warm and/or dry weather.
If you have any further questions please don't hesitate to reach back out to us. Have a great day!
As far as I know, all of them. My All Star strawberry plants survived a sever drought this last summer. This variety does send out a lot of runners.
Customer Reviews
Already successful with a trio of everbearing strawberry plants, I wanted a different variety of self-pollinators. Chose this one.
