Plant Care & Growing Tips

To ensure your Medallion strawberry live plants thrive and produce abundant fruit, proper care is essential. These plants prefer a location that receives full sun, meaning at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day, which is crucial for optimal fruit production and sweetness. For soil, they are happiest in well-drained, loamy soil with a slightly acidic pH ranging from 5.5 to 6.8. If your soil is heavy clay or too sandy, amend it with compost or other organic matter to improve drainage and nutrient retention before planting your everbearing strawberry plants.

Consistent watering is key, especially during dry periods, as strawberry plants have shallow roots that can dry out quickly. Check the soil moisture regularly and water thoroughly when the top inch feels dry to the touch. Avoid overhead watering if possible, as this can encourage fungal diseases; instead, water at the base of the plant. Fertilize with a balanced fertilizer specifically formulated for berries, following the product’s instructions, typically in early spring and again after the first flush of fruit. These outdoor strawberry plants are hardy in USDA Zones 4-9 and prefer temperatures between 55°F and 75°F for optimal growth and fruiting. Protect them from extreme heat or cold if necessary. Regular weeding around your strawberry plants will help reduce competition for nutrients and water, ensuring healthy growth.
