We had strawberry plants when I was a child. I bought a couple plants this year to see how it would go and so far I've been really pleased with the plants. They are getting big and starting to produce lovely ripened fruit (as long as I get to them before naughty critters.)
They had a rocky start with some of the earliest fruit in June getting bug infested or chomped on by critters. I'll get more plants next year and work harder to keep pests away.
