Description

There�s a reason the Pineberry has been causing a stir in restaurants and supermarkets - it�s unlike anything else. And now you can grow these unique white strawberries at home without lifting a finger or planting!

Enjoy this pair of ready-to-go hanging baskets, each pre-planted with Pineberry plants. All you need to do is hang them up and keep them watered. That�s it!

As they grow, they�ll produce creamy white fruits dotted with red seeds - like a strawberry in reverse. But it�s the flavour that�ll really impress - a delicious mix of classic strawberry sweetness with a surprising hint of pineapple. It's a gourmet treat that brings a real touch of the exotic to your garden.

Flowers arrive in May, with fruits ripening from June. These are compact, everbearing plants that stay tidy and focus their energy on fruiting. They don�t throw out loads of runners, so maintenance is minimal. Plus, they have good natural resistance to common strawberry diseases, meaning less worry and better crops.

Supplied as a pair of yellow plastic baskets, 25cm in diameter and each pre-planted with Pineberry plants, ready to display.

Top Tips

Look out for a pink blush on the fruit - this is a sign they are ready to pluck. If possible, pick in dry weather, taking care to leave the green stalk in place once fruit is picked.

Care Information

Pineberry plants need a good six to eight hours of full sun a day for optimal fruit production, so hang your basket somewhere sunny.
Containers should be watered daily and will need regular feeding (once a month until blooming) due to the limited amount of nutrients in the pot.
Water regularly to prevent the plants drying out. When watering, try not to get the fruit wet.
Feed your pineberries at least once a month until flowering and then every ten days with a liquid feed that is high in potassium and low in nitrogen.
