Planting & Care
Plant bare root strawberries as soon as possible after arrival. Soak the roots briefly before planting, then set them in a sunny location with well-drained soil. Dig a hole large enough to spread the roots, position the crown at soil level, and firm the soil around the roots. Water thoroughly after planting and keep the area evenly moist during establishment.
Apply mulch to conserve moisture and suppress weeds, and provide consistent water during dry periods. Remove runners if you want to encourage larger berries and a tidier bed. In colder regions, protect plants with mulch over winter. With proper care, Sweet Charlie plants can establish and produce their first crop in the following season.
