A single variety can be grown, and pollinators are not required. All are self-fruiting. Set out bare-root plants in late winter, before soil warms but after the coldest temperatures are over.
Potted plants can go out when they're available in the nurseries.
In moderate climates, plant in fall and early winter. Set plants 2 to 3 feet apart in the row. Don't fertilize at planting. During the first year only, apply 1 ounce of ammonium nitrate per plant in midsummer. Organic fertilizers that provide adequate nitrogen and potassium will also work well.
