   Been searching for years for Fairfax. here there everywhere. None of your vendors list them though you make big hype that you now have them. Is there a simple way to simply buy them in any quantity?

   Does anybody actually have them for sale?

     They are extremely limited, almost non-existent. One grower has been working to bring the variety back, but has run into problems with low runner production, and therefore low supply. He’d stopped but in 2021 decided to reinstate his nursery license to offer Fairfax strawberries on a very limited basis. You might find some leads in our article about Fairfax here: https://strawberryplants.org/fairfax-strawberry-plants/ or you might be able to contact The Strawberry Store to see if they have any available: https://thestrawberrystore.com/heirloom-hybrid-fairfax

   I am looking for Tristar bare root plants. I live in Ontario. What country are you in? What state if US? How is a person to know if they should order from you when they don’t even know where you are located? You lost a possible customer, and likely a lot more who don’t bother to contact you.

   I am Australian, Blue Mountains NSW. In 2007 I relocated to Tasmania. There I discovered a small flavoursome Tasmanian strawberry, one could smell as soon as walked into grocery shop. The grower called them Ichigo… Which I now know is Japanese word for strawberry , so am none the wiser as to which variety /strain they were. Current ‘ down -under ‘ growers do the huge, very red, tasteless type
   Similarly, in the 1950’s in Sydney my English grandmother grew blackberries, calling them dewberries.. I think now, to distinguish them from our bush wild tyoe. Again her ‘dewberry ‘ was so sweet as well as prolific, we couldnt eat them wuick enough hence lots of jam, pies to be eaten … Still looking for its type. Nothing commercially grown has the flavout of either of these two berries. Any guiding thought????

   I am planning to start a u pick strawberry farm to add to our CSA. Can you recommend varieties ? Also what are the advantage and disadvantages of planting bare root vs starts?

   Thanks!

     I’m sorry, but I don’t know of any suppliers currently offering the Catskill variety. If you do find a source, let us know! Good luck!

   one key question, does *no longer available mean its gone for good, and you cant buy anymore? or just temporarily unavailable, Ive been looking back and forth on this site, realising that many more are becoming *no longer available 😮 I have Aromel, which apparently says this, are you serious that its already gone, just coincidence, or is it really dissapeared from sales?

     Bartosz Piwowarek,
     No, it doesn’t mean they never will become available again. Virtually all of the strawberry genetic material for varieties that have existed are stored in various banks to prevent their extinction. What the designation * no longer available means is that there are currently no online retailers selling the plants. That could change at any time. Good luck!

   The wild strawberries are a great seller. Great for teaching children about gardening and healthy too.

   I have been seeing on youtube the commercial strawberry growers are planting strawberry plants in plastic where do the runners root themselves if grown in plastic

     Debbie Boullion,
     The commercial growers that use the plasticulture method do not allow the runners to root. They treat the strawberry plants as annuals and re-plant each year.

     Runners take away from fruit production so they cut off all runners.

    Twenty plus years ago I ordered strawberry plants from a catalog we received in the mail. It was a popular catalog at the time and one could order anything from seeds to trees. I didn’t know anything about strawberries except that I wanted some so I ordered half ever-bearing and half early-bearing; or that’s the way I remember it. At any rate, one kind choked out the other so we ended with berries early in spring and they stopped producing fairly early. They were fabulous strawberries and I ended up with almost more than I could keep up with. Can you give me any tips on what I might have been growing or what might be a good plant for me? I want the best, sweetest taste I can find that will also do well for jams and freezing. Thank you for any tips you can give.

      Nancy Williams,
      You probably ended up with an early season June-bearing variety. They are very prolific over a relatively short period of time. Which variety will do best for you depends largely on where you live. I’d start here: Recommended Strawberry Varieties. Good luck!

    Looking for a variety we used to grow in the 70’s & 80’s call “Early Sunrise”. The plants were very tall, with big leaves and very fast growing vines. The berries were large to very large with a great taste. It was good for fresh eating, freezing, & jam/jellies/preserves. Usually one of if not the 1st berries of the year to ripen – late May to early June.

      shafter kling,
      Unfortunately, I am not aware of any suppliers of those varieties. It is likely that, since you had those, there have been newer varieties released that are considered superior. Consequently, the older ones aren’t offered any longer. All of the varieties that are readily available at this time, as far as I know, are available here. Good luck, and if you find them, do let me know!

    hello, this is just a question to ask, is it ok if my strawberries can rest on the soil bed? about 3 strawbs of mine are touching the soil, for the vines have lowered down down so suddenly ( they aregrowing a lot though ). my strawbs are doing really well, but i don’t want the to fail at the last very moment. They are june-bearing strawbs. thankyou. 🙂

      No, you should place some sort of mulch on the ground for the strawberries to rest upon. Most commonly, straw is used. Good luck!

    Another question also, is there a good crop rotation for strawberries to replenish the soil? Or do you suggest to just change the soil? I really am interested in crop rotation, but I want to know the best combination for strawberries.
