Children love to pick fresh strawberries but they'll struggle to get their hands around these fantastic fruits. Plant Thompson & Morgan Strawberry “Sweet Colossus” plants in autumn or late spring in a sheltered, sunny position in well manured, free draining soil. Plant strawberry runners every 45cm (18”) in rows spaced at 75cm (30”) apart. Spread out their roots and place them in the soil at a level where the crown of the plant is just poking above the surface. Avoid planting too deeply as this may cause them to rot. Alternatively try growing strawberry plants in hanging baskets or in specially designed strawberry planters for the patio. Weed plants regularly between rows. Water strawberries frequently throughout the growing season and when growing strawberry plants in baskets and containers, they will need feeding every two weeks. From early summer, remove any runners that are produced as these will weaken the plants vigour. Protect the developing fruit from slugs and snails by spreading straw around each plant. Positioning a net over the plants will also prevent damage by birds. The netting and straw can be removed after cropping to allow better air flow around the crown of the plant. Mulch strawberry plants with well-rotted manure in spring. Although strawberry plants will continue to fruit in successive years, the crop will become considerably reduced and it is advisable to completely replace strawberry plants every 3 years.Ideal For: Patio, Kitchen Gardens, Cottage Gardens Hardiness: Hardy Position In: Full Sun Height: Up to 20cm (7.9in) Spread: Up to 30cm (11.8in) Ease of Growing: Easy for All Ease of Aftercare: Easy for All ## Features - Grow your own giant strawberries in the garden with this sensational strawberry, which is ‘Collossus’ by name and a colossus by nature! - Each delicious, tomato-sized fruit weighs in at 42g on average - Don’t worry, these super-sized strawberries have no loss of sweetness or flavour - Supplied as Strawberry 'Sweet Colossus' 9cm potted plants. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Expected blooming period | Spring to Summer | | Moisture needs | Regular Watering | | Sunlight exposure | Full Sun | | Manufacturer | THOMPSON & MORGAN | | ASIN | B09RZZQ57N | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Thompson & Morgan - **Material feature:** Natural - **Colour:** Red - **Expected blooming period:** Spring to Summer - **Sunlight exposure:** Full Sun - **Unit count:** 1.0 Count - **Product care instructions:** water - **Expected plant height:** 30 Centimetres - **Moisture needs:** Regular Watering ## Images ![Strawberry Plants Ready to Plant 'Sweet Colossus' Fragaria x ananassa Strawberry Hardy Perennial Easy to Grow Your Own Garden Strawberries 5X 9cm Potted Plants by Thompson and Morgan (5 x 9cm Pot) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61WKQ0AFoqL.jpg) ![Strawberry Plants Ready to Plant 'Sweet Colossus' Fragaria x ananassa Strawberry Hardy Perennial Easy to Grow Your Own Garden Strawberries 5X 9cm Potted Plants by Thompson and Morgan (5 x 9cm Pot) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61azmOHh1NL.jpg) ![Strawberry Plants Ready to Plant 'Sweet Colossus' Fragaria x ananassa Strawberry Hardy Perennial Easy to Grow Your Own Garden Strawberries 5X 9cm Potted Plants by Thompson and Morgan (5 x 9cm Pot) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51t8NhHIlqL.jpg) ![Strawberry Plants Ready to Plant 'Sweet Colossus' Fragaria x ananassa Strawberry Hardy Perennial Easy to Grow Your Own Garden Strawberries 5X 9cm Potted Plants by Thompson and Morgan (5 x 9cm Pot) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51gICZYgO+L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size Name** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome *by A***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 24 May 2024* Thompson and Morgan have done themselves proud againDelivery very fast packaging appropriate and very sturdyPlants supplied as described and are excellent specimens, very healthy vigorous and pest and disease freePerfect.I have grown these before and the fruits are sensational.
