Wintertime is the time to plant strawberries. Generally speaking, in warmer areas of New Zealand plant sometime between June and September (around the time you start longing for hot summer days!). In cooler climates where it’s likely to snow, aim to plant in August/September. When choosing a spot to plant your strawberries, select a location that has full sun. A minimum of 6 hrs of sunlight is fine, but 9 or 10hrs is ideal. More sunlight will ensure bigger, more flavoursome fruit. Strawberry plants have shallow roots which makes them a great crop to grow in garden beds. They also grow well in pots, hanging baskets or any form of container. I’ve seen people grow strawberries in old gutters, a retired wheelbarrow, even an old compost bin makes a great vessel for strawberry plants.
