Feel good on the inside, look good on the outside with this super berry

Strawberries are not a complicated plant and can be grown in a wide range of soils including light sand and even heavy clay, but better than that they can be grown in a wide range of containers from fancy ceramic, to upcycled chic (pallets to you and me); in raised beds; hanging baskets and even in the ground.

All they ask is not to be waterlogged or left bone dry for too long. The best location in which to grow them is in full sun and out of strong wind and all will flower and fruit the next year and some in the same year you plant.
