Why not enjoy gracing the table with big, juicy, fresh strawberries from your own garden, for it's not as complicated or hazardous as people often think to grow colorful, lush, fruit.
Strawberries are one of the most suitable plants to cultivate in the small back garden.
They require very little space and new plants can easily be propagated from the mother plant, by cutting-off the rooted runners. Even if you happen to live in a small apartment you can still grow strawberries-they're an easy plant to grow in a window box or the oddest of containers. They require little space and virtually no chemicals are necessary, organic fertilizers if properly used are very satisfactory. An urban garden can range in size from a window box to an area of several hundred square yards. Moreover, regardless of the size, permaculture techniques can be used in growing plants for food and other purposes.
