Rainbow Treasure Strawberry ( F1 Hybrid )

Introducing the hottest new strawberry that is available from seed. Rainbow Treasure will delight you with it edible and ornamental qualities! Berries are amazing, juicy, fragrant, and sweet, one of the finest we have tasted-plus the flowers arrive in 3 different colors. It acts as a creeping ground cover, throwing out lots of runners during the first season while the white, pink and deep rose flowers take the show.  If you on't have the ground space, it is does excellent in hanging baskets and containers. We started ours inside in February, planted it out in mid June, and had juicy berries by early August.  15 seeds
