Quick update. Pics from May 20th. Today (May 25) I counted nearly 200 blossoms and strawberries on 24 plants.

Hanging Strawberry Tree - May 6th

A quick strawberry tree update

Here is a quick photo of the strawberry tree. I still think it's cool to think that this only takes up about 2 sq/ft of floor space and has 24 plants on it.

Wild Strawberries

I 'stole' four wild strawberry plants from my Mom's property last time I visited. They had just started their new growth.

Strawberry Update

The strawberries are growing decently, but not as well as I hoped. The problem, I believe, is the soil. It was wrong and I knew it, but I thought it would be alright.

First Strawberry Blossoms

Yesterday I found the first two strawberry blossoms on the ever-bearing strawberries in the strawberry tree. The strawberry tree is doing ok. The growth on the smaller plants is a little slower than I hopped. The more mature plants that I put in it are progressing nicely.

Strawberry Tree - Part 1

I love strawberries, but growing them takes up a lot of room. I wanted a way to grow more strawberries without giving up more and more greenhouse space.
