Strawberry Plants 'Florence' (10 SuperCrowns)

Strawberry Plants 'Florence' (10 SuperCrowns) Code: STR201

£24.95 inc. p&p 24.9500 In Stock New

Fragaria x ananassa 'Florence'

This late summer fruiting strawberry is very popular with gardeners as it combines very good flavour with outstanding disease resistance, especially against powdery mildew. The plants also show some resistance to vine weevil. Produces heavy crops of large, dark red fruits with very good flavour.

 

Commercial growers maximise the yield of the 60 day crop by planting with hand graded plants, carefully selected to ensure a crown size of 14mm or more in diameter. With our 14-18mm SuperCrowns you too can maximise your 60 day crop. Please note: SuperCowns are only supplied as coldstored plants for spring/summer delivery.

Bred in the U.K.  RHS Award of Garden Merit  RHS Perfect for Pollinators


Season: late Summer (late June - late July).


Available for delivery: March - early July (coldstored plants).


 

If you have ever grown your own strawberries before you will know that the aroma and flavour is far superior to that of shop bought fruit. What’s more, they take up a minimum amount of room and are easy to grow. All they require is a sunny, sheltered spot. Plants can be spaced 30cm (12in) apart in the open ground. Alternatively they can be grown in growbags (10 plants per growbag), or in hanging baskets or containers.

 

Our hand graded strawberry plants are raised on selected sites in the UK under the Plant Health Propagation Scheme (PHPS) and are guaranteed to be free from pests and diseases.

 

Unless otherwise stated in the product description, fresh dug strawberry runners are available from mid October to late November and will crop the following season. Coldstored strawberry plants are available from March to early July. These will crop 60-90 days after planting. Please note, some varieties (where stated in the product description) are only available as coldstored plants.
