'Fenella' Strawberry Plants
- Is there anything better than the feeling of biting into a perfectly-ripe, juicy strawberry? Answer: no. And trust us, 'Fenella' strawberries? Well they're some of the very best. They're large, they're juicy and they're bloomin' delicious.
- With good disease resistance being one of its key strengths, 'Fenella' is an excellent pick for the temperamental British climate, tolerating both heavy rain and cold weather. Grow your strawberry plants in beds, borders, pots or grow-bags.
- A late season variety, you can expect to harvest your (heavy) crop of 'Fenella' strawberries throughout July. Preceding the emergence of the fruits are the painterly white blooms, which make it an excellent ornamental plant in its own right.
- Eat your strawbs fresh after picking, serve them with meringue and cream in a classy pavlova, or boil them down into a sticky, sweet jam to spread on your morning toast.
- Low-maintenance, disease-resistant and easy to grow, 'Fenella' strawberries are a great way to get kids involved in the garden, and saves a trip to that expensive PYO farm down the road!
