I wonder whether this is a similar variety to the Spanish strawberries available in shops at the moment.

Hoping for Big Things
I spotted some seeds of giant strawberries for sale so I thought I would give them a try. The seeds spent about 3 weeks in the freezer, as per the instructions, and are now sown in pots on the kitchen windowsill. Now it is a waiting game to see whether they start growing as, apparently, they are not an easy plant to get started. The seeds are tiny as can bee seen with the two I found still in their plastic bag, now planted with the others:

I love strawberries John. Hope you're successful with them.
ReplyDeleteThey look so big, they could be a meal for one!
Keith: Same here. I buy them most of the year round though for taste you can't beat our home grown varieties. The very large ones are not as tasty or juicy but still welcome on my meal table.
