Its compact, mounding habit makes it an excellent choice for garden beds, raised planters, and container growing, where the attractive green foliage and white flowers add ornamental value.

Planting & Care
Plant bare root strawberries as soon as possible after arrival. Soak roots in water for 30–60 minutes before planting. Choose a sunny location with well-drained soil. Dig a hole large enough to spread the roots, set the plant so the crown (where roots meet stems) is at soil level, and firm soil around the roots. Water thoroughly after planting and keep the area consistently moist but not waterlogged during establishment.
Apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring and again after the first harvest. Mulch around plants to conserve moisture and suppress weeds. Remove runners if you want to encourage larger berries, or allow them to root for new plants. In colder zones, provide winter protection with straw mulch. Harvest berries when fully red and ripe for best flavor.
