Our Feedback
Dave and I have attended your nursery a couple of times now. Your assistants are truly welcoming and extremely knowledgeable, and we have seen amazing results in the clarity of our pond water since purchasing some of the oxygenating plants we bought from you ie. crispa, water violet, water cress etc. Dave practically fell in the tank of crispa when we visited you and it has been a standing joke ever since. Thanks to all of you for your help and we will visit again soon.

Supplied as compost block grown plants approximately 5" (13 cm) tall.
Available from - We Need To Check StockProven since our re-introduction in 1964 - this heavy cropping remontant strawberry produces delicate yet small sized fruits that have a superb flavour which is more subtle than conventional larger fruits. These plants don't produce runners.
The fruits are seldom seen for sale in England, but in France we have seen little baskets of these strawberries on sale everywhere all Summer and Autumn.
Being an 'ever-bearer' the plants form dense clumps from which the tiny fruits appear; will even grow and perform in semi shade. Fruiting starts early Summer and will continue intermittently until the late Autumn, though given cloche protection it is possible to even extend fruiting into the Winter
Many years ago these were described by Max Davidson in the Sunday Express as, "the little Strawberry with the big flavour".
Also known as wild strawberry, woodland strawberry, Carpathian Strawberry, European Strawberry or fraisier des bois.
These were featured on the BBC Great British Garden Revival presented by Alys Fowler - who came to see us in the Summer to talk about all sorts of berries, and this just happened to be one of her favourites!
