#ProPlantTips for Care:
Strawberry plants fruit the best in full sun locations that have enriched, well-drained soil. Provide regular yet moderate amounts of moisture and a 3-4 inch deep layer of compost and/or mulch with regular fertility.
Arrange runners around the parent plants, or into rows evenly and transplant rooted runners into gaps to fill in the area fully. Rake through or trim back plants after the foliage has yellowed or in the early spring before new growth emerges.
