Alpine Strawberry

• 100 seeds
• Open pollinated
• Distance between plants - 18-24"
• Full sun
• Water every 2 days
• Days to maturity - 80-100 days
• Days to germination - 21-40 days
• Height - 12"'
• Germination rate - 65%

Sow: Indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost on surface of soil as it needs sun to germinate. Transplant 2 weeks after last frost

Harvest: September - October when fruit is ripe and tastes like candy. Don't harvest before as the sugars have not made the fruit the closest thing to natures candy that I have found.

If the seeds do not germinate, you need to stratify them again by putting the seedling tray in -4 to +4 degrees for a couple of weeks and then back into the cool warm air.

Seeds produced: Le Noyau farms but the original seeds came from Jean-Philippe Alie at Les Fraises Alpines de L'Ouvre Coeur.
