Our Feedback
Bought a few fruit trees from you last year, all going strong and produced well. Have just received two honeyberry plants, both healthy and good size, looking forward to tasting. Thanks for the natural packing, its lovely to unpack to find the plant, like Christmas again!!

Supplied as 7cm pot grown plants.
This Product is Available Now.The flavour of this variety is quite exceptional and surpasses the taste or any bred 'for long shelf life' commercially grown strawberry. The large fruits are sweet and very juicy – a real dribble down your chin experience! In our opinion this is the best variety of strawberry there is.
Many major supermarkets are now using this variety of strawberry to make their jam – and a very sensible idea too!
Jeremy Shirley first saw these in Elmshorn in Germany back in the 1950s; these were growing in balcony troughs with runners all of 6 feet (1.8 metres) in length, festooned with lovely fruit. This is the perfect variety of strawberry for growing in hanging baskets, window boxes or to create a curtain of strawberries!
Much controversy existed in the past over the merits of climbing strawberries and the claims made. Whilst no strawberry can climb in the accepted sense, Rambling Cascade can be trained and tied into trellis, canes or around a stout pole, giving the effect of climbing strawberries.
Rambling Cascade is of course also suitable for open-ground growing and is a fantastic variety for those considering growing in matted rows.
Recommended by the RHS to be an excellent attractant and nectar source for bees and other beneficial insects.
