Strawberry "Korona early variety" 5 Roots (Bare root)

Remove plants from the packaging as soon as possible. You can either plant it straight into your garden or in a pot (3-liter pot or larger). Use an enriched compost and make sure to leave the crown (base) of the plant out - Water well. 

If you have a greenhouse, you can bring the pots inside from early Feb-March to boost the plants into producing flowers and get an early crop.

Pinching some flowers may be required to limit fruit production and provide sufficient nutrients for the plant to grow properly and ensure many years of production.

A cold spell is required for forcing the plant to produce flowers in the spring - However, you may need to protect the plant from early frost by placing the pots/ boxes in a sheltered area (if applicable) or covering the plants with mulch or straw. This will be removed when weather conditions are warmer for the plants.
