Earliglow Strawberries- 25 for $15
This variety produces fruit with glossy skin, firm flesh, and medium size. Its sweet flavor makes it excellent for fresh eating and freezing. Fruit size tends to decrease as the season progresses. Earliglow plants are very vigorous and run well. This variety has good resistance to red stele and intermediate resistance to Verticillium wilt. It is recommended for beginners. Direct sunlight for least 8 hours per day. June-bearing strawberry plants bear fruit one year after planting. Plant as soon as possible in the spring after the soil has warmed to 50°F. Planting at the correct depth is very important. Plant with the middle of the crown level with the top of the soil and roots straight down. A "wonderful strawberry flavor" is Earliglows trademark.

This heirloom variety was long considered the standard variety for production and high-quality fruit by which fall-bearing varieties were judged. Heritage is a highly popular variety for home gardeners. The fall crop is highly productive and ripens from the end of August through October, depending on your location. The berries have good size, color, and flavor. The fruit is good for jam and freezing and is also delicious for fresh use. Direct sunlight for at least 8 hours per day.
