This perennial berry does not have runners. It is sweet and larger than the red alpine strawberrys and can be grown from seed or divisions . It is very productive but does not like dry or hot weather . It will still thrive in light shade with good watering and continually produce berrys .
It takes about a year to reach bearing size, so If you are in a hurry, you can order plants and get about a 6 months jump on the time till they bear fruit. They make wonderful hanging baskets.

All of our seed offerings were grown here. We have been seed savers for 20 years. Our seeds are packaged in original art packets, hand folded with 100% recycled paper. Instructions for growing are not on the packs but are on the listing under seed template. Books on gardening as well as many catalogs carry general information on growing seeds. I am available by e-mail or phone to answer any growing questions as well. You won't find that service from many sources of seeds . The shipping on our orders also includes the processing and handling charges which is also less or equal to most seed companies. Remember we hand pack each order and drive from the farm to the post office to ship your order. I are not a big seed company, in fact not a company at all. I am homestead gardener.
