Plant Features
Cavendish is a high-yielding producer of large, juicy strawberries that are excellent for fresh eating, canning or freezing. This June bearing strawberry is the preferred choice for northern gardeners, due to its amazing winter resistance, and is the one we plant in our gardens. Offers excellent disease resistance.
Plant Care: Within a week post-harvest, mow or hand-trim plants to leave just 1-2 inches above the crowns. Clear away debris, fertilize, and ensure regular watering throughout summer.
