Arrived today, my order of 12 Anablanca Strawberries from Sutton Seeds (£12.99 + p&p). I was expecting potted plants so I was at first shocked by the size of the package that turned up.
Removing all the packaging, I found a small bag with 12 (well, I actually received a smaller 13th) bareroot plants.
Anablancas are a less common variety of strawberry, bearing white fruits, closely connected to the more famous 'Pineberries', retaining a pineapple tinged flavour.
I planted 7 up in a long planter, 4 in a square planter and two in individual small pots. This is my back up plan should my original Pineberries not produce fruit for the 2nd year running.
