Species and varieties: The giant strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa) is a hybrid species of the genus Fragaria, known for its large, juicy fruits. Popular varieties include 'Albion', 'Seascape', and 'Chandler'.
Hybrid or heirloom: Giant strawberry seeds are typically hybrid varieties, bred for their size, flavor, and disease resistance. These hybrids are often developed through selective breeding to enhance specific traits.
Pruning and training: Regular pruning is essential to maintain plant health and fruit production. Remove runners and dead leaves to encourage better air circulation and reduce the risk of disease. Training the plants to grow in rows or mounds can help manage space and improve yield.
Fertilization needs: Giant strawberries benefit from a balanced fertilizer, such as a 10-10-10 NPK formula. Apply fertilizer in early spring and again after the first harvest. Organic options like compost or well-rotted manure can also be used to enrich the soil.
Hardiness zones: Giant strawberries are suitable for USDA hardiness zones 4-9. They can tolerate a range of climates but perform best in temperate regions.
Climate requirements: Giant strawberries require a climate with moderate temperatures, ideally between 60-80°F (15-27°C). They need full sun exposure for at least 6-8 hours a day and well-drained soil with a pH between 5.5 and 6.8.
