2 years ago I found strawberry plants growing under a hedge on our property. I'm guessing the previous owner of other house dumped them. I dug them up and replanted. The plants gave me sweet fruit last year, not much. The deer love the leaves. Last Autumn I took the runners and planted in my vertical garden. The Greenstalk is by the garage. I'm hoping the deer wont venture this way. I have a question, if anyone grows strawberries. I planted runners in sand, no soil. The few berries last year(critters ate the plants) were very sweet. I know carrots will be sweeter when grown in a sand with very little dirt. Who has grown strawberries in very sandy soil?
Sad to see the bluebird box on ground : ( I found it this morning. Maybe the storm? The eggs were broken. I'm hoping Momma will return and build another nest. I did see her flying neat the box a few minutes ago. I'll add heavier wire to the box for better hold
Today's good mood brought to you by a lot of coffee!!!
