Root only 5 or 6 runners from each plant and remove the rest. Arrange the runners to the ground and plant and remove the rest. Arrange the runners so they're about 6 inches apart.

Pinch or cut off the first flowers that form, allowing the flowers later in the season to produce fruit.

Nice strong plants - all survived shipping
Apr 11, 2022 | By Julia
I received a pack of nice strong bare root strawberry plants neatly secured with a rubber band. The tiny leaves were pale, but fresh. I planted them in holes filled with water and soil. Now, it has been about 3 weeks: all the plants are growing, the leaves are now normal color, and 2 plants started flowering!
