It is normal for an established parch to not send out runners. If your patch is healthy this year, it will likely produce well again next year. Perhaps next spring you might consider starting some more for the following year.

Are those Seascape berries? I tried some here, but they were not well suited for the usual patch here...many froze out. June [actually May] bearers do much better for me. My newer Earliglows had huge ones like that.

It definitely made me rethink my motto that when fruit gets too big, it is not tasty. These strawbs are still great.

The varieties are Albion and Chandler, and I think the big ones are the albions. (they got all mixed up unfortunately)

wayne, Are you saying that I should still be able to get a good harvest my third year? How long have you had yours?
