Plants looked dried out when shipped. Planted in spring 2011 approximately 25 plants. In spring 2012 we lost 1/2 from the winter. The ones that were left produced a fair amount of strawberries excellent flavor and all at least as big as a half dollar. When they were done fruiting; they almost completely took over shooting runners EVERWHERE. I transplanted the runners and will see how they do after this winter.

Love these berries. We have gotten some 4 inches cross and they are just as sweet as the smaller ones. I have been able to share the runner plants with friends and family and they all have loved them. They are so easy to grow. The only bad thing I can think of is we have to wait all winter to eat freash ones.

Didn't do well in NW
Reviewed By: Amy (Duvall, WA)
I planted these at my home at the west base of the Cascades and they've done very little. They seem to rott very easily; not good in the damp NW. Their taste is so-so. I've had much better luck with other strawberry varieties.
