flamenco strawberries review – I’m going to be getting a couple of plants to test out over the next year. They’re supposed to be prolific fruiters from July until October. They sound a fantastic addition to my current strawberry bed.
Flamenco was bred by the renowned East Malling Research, Kent.
T&M reckon that from only 12 mature Flamenco Strawberry plants you will be able to harvest a bumper crop of 10kg (22lb) of fruit in one cropping season from mid May until November, with the peak of the fruit produced in early September.
That’d be pretty impressive!
Aromel are supposed to last until October fruiting too.
