Here are a couple of pics of some strawberries and rhubarb starts I purchased a while back.
Picked these up at a farm store as crowns, but they had started to grow in the bags they were shipped in.
I sat the strawberries in cups of water with their roots in the water and did the same with the rhubarb.
I was waiting for the weather and the soil to get to a point they could be planted but so far no luck, and look what we have now.
I wish I knew how to polinate the strawberry blooms???

THANX RICH

Strawberries growing like that are easy to pollinate. Just use a soft artist's brush and move it from flower to flower and back just like the bees do.
