Thompson & Morgan is pleased to launch the very best-flavoured, pink-flowering strawberry, following 8 years of intensive development work by our dedicated plant breeding team. Strawberry 'Just Add Cream™' is a compact plant producing masses of pretty pink flowers and few runners in favour of more fruit - up to 1kg per plant. Early to fruit, this attractive ornamental strawberry will keep cropping until the first hard frosts of autumn, but the key difference with any strawberry currently on the market is the unique flavour. It combines the sweetness of home-grown strawberries with the special taste of the wild woodland or alpine strawberry. The flavour is stronger and more stable over the season than varieties with a similar aroma note, like 'Mara des Bois' and 'Charlotte'. Looks stunning cascading from hanging baskets and patio pots. Height: 30cm (12"). Spread: 50cm (20").

Water strawberries frequently throughout the growing season and weed regularly between rows. When growing strawberry plants in baskets and containers, they will also need feeding every two weeks.
From early summer, remove any runners that are produced as these will weaken the plants vigour. Protect the developing fruit from slugs and snails by spreading straw around each plant. Positioning a net over the plants will also prevent crop damage by birds. The netting and straw can be removed after cropping to allow better air flow around the crown of the plant. Mulch strawberry plants with well rotted manure in spring.
Although strawberry plants will continue to fruit in successive years, the crop will become considerably reduced and it is advisable to completely replace strawberry plants every 3 years.

Thompson & Morgan strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3
