This strawberry also tolerates partial shade. As a monthly strawberry, "Alexandria" also grows bushy and without runners.
Non hybrid

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.
