Yukon God potatoes after the second hilling
I have trouble growing strawberries on my place. I tried the Sequoia, which were supposed to be a heat tolerant type, but they weren't. I'm now experimenting with Ozark. We had a few berries in the early spring, then the plants started to die back. With the rains and cooler temps last week, they've perked up and have blooms again.
Just absolutely gorgeous garden. I would think I was the world’s greatest gardener if my stuff looked one fourth as good as yours. Your stuff is gardening catalog grade.
Strawberries, yum! Mine are just starting to form little green berries.
Is that barley hulls under your berries? Does it help with pests as well as keep them tidy?
My last tiny experiment with strawberries was a total failure, so I just brought a different variety - June Berry- and made a raised bed sort of along the lines of a bag container. I made a round out of a little wire edger fence, lined it with landscape fabric, then filled it with what I hope is a good soil mix.
Four plants which already had berries went in, and look much better after a few days in their new home. Now I hope they have a nice flavor. The last ones were exactly like cardboard.
I love wild strawberries best - but they are wild, and don’t grow many places around here.
Gorgeous strawberries!
