Pollination
This variety is self pollinating.
In many cases, you may still want to plant pollinating partners to increase the size of your crops, but with self-pollinating varieties doing so is optional. You’ll get fruit with only one plant!
How do I find my Hardiness Zone?
Canada’s Plant Hardiness Zones will tell you which plants will do well in your particular climate. Each zone is determined by the lowest average winter temperature recorded in a given area. Hardiness Zone information is included on all tree and plant product pages, so you know instantly whether a certain plant is likely to succeed where you live. Natural Resources Canada provides helpful options to find your zone:
CARL BELKEN –
These are the best strawberries I have ever grown. I like the fact that they bear fruit all season long. We did not order many plants but in a good year my wife picks several dozen each morning for breakfast. We have been growing this variety since 2008.
Jeff Arbogast –
Don’t know, since they died. Sorry I can’t help since they did not produce.
