Over 15 million Strawberry Mara de Bois plants are bought in France each year, increasing home grown harvests by 10,000 tonnes every summer! This unique variety combines modern vigour and the cropping potential of commercial varieties with the intense aromatic flavours of woodland and alpine varieties. Top chef's chase these flavours every summer, now you can have them ready to pick in your own garden. This perpetual fruiting strawberry crops all summer long, so there's no need for vast rows of early, mid and late season varieties. If you only have room for one row or a container or deux, make sure you pick Strawberry Mara de Bois. Height: 20cm (8"). Spread: 30cm (12").

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.
