Excellent, all the plants have given birth to new runners and 5 years later I still have plenty of strawberries in my vegetable patch. I make coulis, jams, etc. Really very interesting and very economical. Thank you PDF, promise kept!

Description

The 'Mariguette' is a perpetual variety of strawberry that offers good yields, combining the qualities of its parents 'Mara des Bois' and 'Gariguette': exceptional wild strawberry fragrance, earliness, and productivity. Large elongated fruits with a red-orange colour, reminiscent of 'Gariguette'. A remarkable new creation! Preferably planted in autumn for a harvest from May/June to October.

Strawberries can be enjoyed in multiple ways: they can be eaten fresh, with sugar, cream, or sliced thinly and dried before being added to muesli or yoghurt. If you have a bountiful harvest, consider making jams, sauces, pies, ice cream, or sorbets. You can also freeze strawberries.

There are three categories of strawberry varieties:

- Wild strawberries or four-season strawberries, producing small fruits from June to October

- Non-perpetual varieties with large fruits, flowering only once a year in spring and producing very large fruits around June

- perpetual varieties with large fruits, flowering twice a year or continuously, producing large fruits from June to October

Indeed, the wild strawberry or woodland strawberry, present during Roman times and the medieval period, was crossed in the 18th century with a species taken from Chile, resulting in, through successive selections, different varieties with large fruits.

The strawberry plant is a hardy perennial belonging to the Rosaceae family. This variety has a compact habit, with evergreen trifoliate, ovate, and dentate leaves. It produces small white flowers with a golden centre that transform into large red fruits. Botanically speaking, strawberries are considered pseudocarps, with the achenes (seeds) exposed on the surface under the skin.

For harvesting, pick the fruits as they ripen, every 2 or 3 days, ideally in the morning. Strawberries are fragile, so pick them with their stalks by pinching the stem 1 to 2 cm (0 to 1in) above it. The texture of the fruit is a good indicator of its ripeness. It should be firm and slightly soft when pressed with a finger. Strawberries are rich in vitamins and minerals. They can cause urticating effects for some people as they stimulate the release of histamine in the body.

Planting and care

The 'Mariguette' Strawberry appreciates rich, deep and well-drained soils, slightly acidic. A few months before planting, loosen the soil and add a generous amount of well-rotted compost. If your soil is chalky, add peat and then provide a mulch made of acidic materials (decomposed pine bark). Remove any weeds and stones present in the soil. Planting this variety is preferably done in autumn. Choose a sunny spot. Strawberry plants are good companions for garlic, beans, lettuce, onions, leeks, thyme, and spinach. However, they do not appreciate the company of cabbage and other brassicas. Strawberry plants remain in place for 3 to 4 years.

In the ground: Space the plants 35 cm (14in) apart in all directions. Dig a hole, place the strawberry plant (the collar should be level with the ground) and cover with fine soil. Water generously. If your soil is moist, plant the plants on mounds 10 to 20 cm (4 to 8in) high.

In a pot: Place a layer of gravel or clay pebbles at the bottom of the pot to facilitate drainage. Fill the pot with a mixture of potting soil, garden soil, and compost. Place the strawberry plant, cover with soil, and firm it down. Water generously.

Regularly weed. Mulch around the plants in summer to maintain soil moisture. Install a protective net before the fruits turn red to prevent sharing your harvest with birds. You can also place ash or coffee grounds near young plants to repel slugs and snails. Water regularly, especially in hot weather. In autumn, remove dry leaves.

Apply compost on the surface in spring. In cooler regions, install a tunnel in spring to protect the plants from spring frosts during flowering.

The plants need to be renewed every 3 or 4 years. This variety multiplies through adventurous stolons, small creeping stems that naturally root in the soil, forming new plants. In order not to exhaust the mother plant, cut the stolons and replant them if desired.

Wait 4 years before replanting Strawberry plants in the same location.
