I found these at my job for only $2 and could not resist! I really hope I can succeed in making these girlies happy but I’ve never even attempted fruit like this before. If anyone has advice for me please feel free to share.

the best way to plant them in garden boxes (if you are) is in mounds. The mother plant will shoot off babies periodically during the on season, with the mound method you can tell which plant is the original, which means you can take one of the babies and replant in when the mother plant dies/slows down.

I may just be sleepy, but what do you mean by mounds exactly? Im picturing a hill of soil but i dont quite understand how the offshoots would grow any different just by the soil level being lower on the sides (i know nothing about growing strawberries but i want to attempt this year so im just making assumptions)
3 Me gustait won’t change the quality of strawberries but rather it will help you see what is the mother plant so you can replace it with the babies. Without the mounds, you wouldn’t be able to tell what the baby plants and the mother plants are which means you would be getting less strawberries because you don’t know what one to replace.
