HOMEMAKER BEDDING Duvet Cover Bed Quilt Set Pillow Cases Strawberry Print (Double)

Product Information

As strawberries are perishable, it's best to eat them straight from the plant, ideally still warm from the sun. From early spring onwards, encourage flowering and fruit set by feeding your strawberry plants with a high-potash feed (such as tomato feed) every week or two (follow the pack instructions). Mulch around each plant, either with straw, pine needles (which will promote acidity in soil), or similar organic material. Similar to plastic sheeting, landscape fabric is another agricultural product designed to deter the growth of weeds.

Although strawberry plants are considered perennial, they are most productive in their first five years. In early spring, scatter a general-purpose fertiliser around your plants in the ground, following the instructions on the pack. Now, repurposed and pared back into the Pure Morris colour palette, Wandle's meandering diagonal branches and emanating flowers adorn this stunning bedlinen set. After the plastic sheeting is secured, small holes are either punctured or burned through the thin sheet with an industrial tool.If you do not renovate the bed and leave it be for several years, the plants will form a thick mass, choking themselves out.

While it doesn’t add organic matter to the soil, it does an excellent job of moisture retention, weed suppression, and keeping the growing strawberries clean. Her passion isn't just limited to plants; she's a staunch advocate for holistic, eco-friendly gardening techniques that benefit both flora and fauna. The bedlinen features this enduringly elegant design printed onto 300 thread count cotton percale, edged with navy piping and reversing to a delicate willowbough pattern coloured in an indigo palette. Damp strawberries will quickly go mouldy, so only wash what you can eat and blot them dry on kitchen paper. The range incudes a jacquard duvet cover and oxford pillowcase woven in a fine 300 thread count cotton, reversing to a coordinating plain 200 thread count percale.

He was inspired to create the original fabric after watching thrushes stealing strawberries from the kitchen garden of his countryside home, Kelmscott Manor, in Oxfordshire. Relieved that I purchased whilst on special offer, as I feel slightly duped, and even then it was not exactly a bargain. Just like straw is in the fields, grass clippings should be allowed to sit and dry out in the sun after they are cut. As with grain straw, a 1″-2″ thick layer of pine needles makes an excellent mulch for the berry patch.
