Description: This cultivar has stunning, pink flowers. Strong plants that send out lots of runners. The pink flowers make a great show, with edible, small, red fruit. The flowers are more noticeable than the fruit.

Planting Instructions: Plant in rows with plants 30-40cm apart in the row and 50 cm apart between rows. Be sure to have a plan for covering from birds before fruit begins ripening. Strawberries are heavy feeders so prepare the beds with compost, and provide liquid or foliar feeds during the growing season. They need well drained soil and must not sit in poorly drained soil over winter. They love a pine needle mulch and a little seaweed.
