Mara des Bois French Strawberry (10 starter plants)
$49.00
Mara des Bois French Strawberry
10 bare root plants in a pot. Plant in the garden 1-1.5 ft apart.
Plump, fragrant, sweet and exceedingly tasty. By reputation, ‘Mara des Bois’ has the best flavour and fragrance of any strawberry currently in cultivation.
It is a remontant (everbearing) variety that produces fruit in summer to early fall in the first year, but in subsequent years produces a heavy spring crop with continued production throughout the growing season. Berries are small to medium (acorn size), which puts them in the category of being much smaller than most commercially grown berries but larger and firmer than tiny wild strawberries.
It is recommended to pick off flowers in the first growing season to let the roots establish better.
