Strawberries are surprising easy to grow and they multiply so quickly. A few plants this year, will be a field next year - well, a little exaggeration maybe, but you get the picture.
I had a small spot in my back yard, beside our pool. It was around the pump area, so I decided to plant some berries. I had maybe 10 plants. By the next year, the entire area was overflowing, and I actually had to dig some up because they were growing into the pump.
One suggestion, or warning. The birds and other critters love strawberries. I would go out and see the plants loaded with pinkish fruit and think, tomorrow I'm going to have a bunch of berries. Then tomorrow, they'd all be gone. What we did was buy some landscape netting - you can get it at any Lowes or Home Depot. We cut it to size and laid it gently on top of the plants, and weighted it down with bricks. That kept the birds out. It made it a little harder to harvest, but at least we got to harvest.
We planted both June and ever bearing and we would get about a pint or two every other day for probably 6-8 weeks. And let me tell you, the taste is out of this world, nothing at all like the ones you get from the store.
Good luck, and let us know how it goes.
