Growing tips

Month strawberries can only be propagated by seed or by dividing the cane. Strawberries grow best in deep, loose and humus-rich soil, as they are prone to disease if water stagnates. They also like a sunny position. Young plants can be planted from spring to fall, with mid-May being ideal for monthly strawberries. When planting, the heart of the plant with the young shoots must not be under the soil.
