Honeoye Strawberry have large crimson fruit that consistently bears heavy yields. This rich color carries over well for fresh eating, freezing, preserves, and wine. Fruit ripens in June-July, however we still getting berries into late summer. Harvest early-mid season. This type of strawberry is disease-resistant and easy to grow. It is also self-pollinating. Zone 3-8. Can do well in slightly colder climates with good warm microclimate area and good mulching. This is our favorite strawberry and we think it’s fairly easy to grow great amount of berry per plant and several runners too. They are producing fruit 1-5 years. Recommend refreshing your patch with runners that grow from your original mother plants by year 3 so you have continuous flush of healthy plants and fruit.
When you receive your plants separate the bundled plants, remove any dried leaves at their tops and soak the roots in shallow water for an hour or two before planting.
Plant them just up to their crowns. The crowns prefer to float on top of the soil level.
Pick the sunniest south facing area that stays dry in spring breakup and covered with snow insulation during winter.
Roots will freeze dry if plant in a cold area or in a raised garden bed or box where an air draft could blow underneath it.
Typically best planted in mounded rows, gutters, hanging baskets. If put into a container, YOU MUST BURY the pot direct into ground or place at ground frost level and mulch cover with a few inches of plant debris for insulation during winter.
Strawberries LOVE HEAT so if you’d like to cover the area with black plastic, fabric, straw, or wool you’ll have success!
Plant them late spring into May when ground is workable and weather pending after no frosts, while the ground is still cool and moist, and in a sunny spot, if possible.
