'Quinault' Strawberry

‘Quinault’ Strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa ‘Quinault’). This everbearing strawberry produces particularly large, juicy, and sweet fruits, perfect for a generous harvest at home. Its compact and vigorous growth allows for easy cultivation in pots, on balconies, or in the garden. It offers several waves of production, ensuring regular harvests throughout the season. Its dense foliage protects the fruits well and contributes to overall good resistance. Versatile and high-performing, it suits both beginner and experienced gardeners. The indicated mature size is 25–30 cm (10–12 in) in height and 30–40 cm (12–16 in) in width.

To plant ‘Quinault’ strawberries, choose an appropriate exposure: full sun. The recommended soil is rich, loose, and well-drained. Keep the crown of the strawberry at soil level: if buried too deep, it can rot; if too exposed, it may dry out. Keep the fruits clean with appropriate mulch and monitor runners to control row density. Water the root ball before planting and ensure water can drain after planting. During establishment, check moisture by hand before watering again. Spread mulch around the base, leaving the crown clear.

Allow a width of 30–40 cm (12–16 in) to plan this plant’s space in the garden. The indicated height of 25–30 cm (10–12 in) helps choose its position relative to neighboring plants. Maintain access to the base to weed, check moisture, and remove damaged parts. Associate this variety with plants that have compatible light and water needs. If considering a container, first verify that its volume and drainage are suitable for root development. Roots in pots are more exposed to cold than those planted in the ground.
