Strawberry questions

17 years ago

Thanks in advance for all answers!

1. I am thinking to buy Sparkle or Earliglow plants next spring based on nice comments about them I read on this forum. Does any one know is it a good choice for my zone (20 miles north of Philadelphia) in terms of disease resistance, flavor etc?

Are they both June bearers?

2. I have Ozark Beauty I bought from Lowe's last year, and it set out about 10 runners. So this May and June, these 10 plants produced about 180 strawberries total, some were big, some were just the size of my thumbnail (I lost some to birds, slugs, pill bugs, mold etc). Is this normal yield for this variety?

Thank you!
