Strawberry 'Perfume Freeclimber'Fragaria x vescanaParfum® Freeclimber®

Water and fertilise Parfum® 'Freeclimber'® frequently throughout the growing season and weed regularly between rows. 

In the spring, remove the first flower stems to encourage the formation of runners. Tie the runners in to vertical supports such as trellis. In late autumn, cut away the runners. 

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.
