Albion Everbearing Strawberry

🍓 Albion Everbearing Strawberry (Bare Root Bundle)

Our Albion Everbearing Strawberries are one of the most sought-after varieties for a reason. Known for their large, firm berries, exceptional sweetness, and continuous production, these plants are perfect for anyone wanting fresh strawberries all season long.

Each bundle contains approximately 20–25 bare root plants (average 23–24), carefully selected for strong starts and healthy growth.

🌿 Why Albion?

• Everbearing (Day-Neutral): Produces multiple harvests from spring through fall
• Flavor: Rich, sweet, and slightly tangy with a true “old-fashioned” strawberry taste
• Berry Size: Large, firm, and excellent for fresh eating, freezing, or selling
• High Yield: Consistent production when properly maintained
• Heat Tolerant: Performs well even in warmer climates like Zone 7

📦 What To Do When Your Plants Arrive

Your strawberries will arrive as bare root plants (dormant).

1. Open immediately and inspect roots
2. Soak roots in room-temperature water for 1–2 hours before planting
3. Do NOT let roots dry out
4. If you can’t plant right away, keep them cool and slightly moist (refrigerator works short-term)

🌱 How To Plant

• Choose a full sun location (6–8+ hours daily)
• Use well-drained, rich soil (add compost if needed)
• Space plants 12–18 inches apart in rows 2–3 feet apart

👉 Planting depth is critical:

• Keep the crown (center of plant) right at soil level
• Roots go down into the soil — not bent or exposed

Water thoroughly after planting.

🌿 How To Grow & Maintain

• Keep soil consistently moist, not waterlogged
• Mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds
• Feed with a balanced fertilizer or compost regularly
• Remove runners if you want larger berries, or allow them to root for expansion
• Expect light production early, with stronger harvests as plants establish
