Strawberry ‘Sweetheart’ is a delightful little plant variety boasting resilience to disease and a dense canopy of rich, broad, dark green leaves. It is a fast growing plant, quickly reaching maturity and providing a relatively large amount of small, vibrant, flavourful red berries. These Strawberry plants will arrive as a bare root, ready to plant. Upon arrival they are dormant with any leftover foliage shrivelled and dry. They should be planted soon after arrival and once planted they will be revitalised, with new growth emerging quickly and flowering soon after.

It will grow best in full sun and should be soaked in lukewarm water before planting to help rehydrate it. Water generously and apply a generous layer of mulch. Keep the soil moist to ensure healthy growth. Supplied as: Bare root runner. Plant Height: 5-10cm. Characteristics: Disease tolerant, compact habit and dense foliage.
