Cute berries, tasty but perhaps underwhelming due to size and fragility.
For an Alpine berry, I prefer the yellow Pineapple variety also produced by Renee’s.
Fruited starting the first year.
No growth or signs of being viable seeds in 4-5 weeks.
After buying a big national brand of Alpine Strawberry seeds and having a germination rate of less than 10% I tried these. Wow what a difference about a 95% or higher germination rate . It appears these seeds are "stratified" prior to packaging. Stratification is required of many seeds and alpine strawberries are one. How do you stratify seeds? Freeze them for 2-4 weeks! I did not know this until I tried to determine why I was having trouble sprouting them. I now have 9 types growing from seeds but the two best at germination are the Renee's Mignonette and Pineapple. Very slow to start but in a few weeks they will be up and growing.
I have now planted 10 different Alpine strawberries. These seeds and the Pineapple have averaged 80% germination. I have some types with only a 20% rate. These are excellent seeds!

from 9167 reviewsWorking great
I bought these seeds to go in bundles of packets of vegetable seeds that I will put in the Blessing Box at a church here in town about late January so people who need to can supplement the groceries they buy with a garden. I'm sure they will love them. If my budget stretches that far, I will get some for myself and let you know how I like them. I still have eight bundles worth of packets of seeds to purchase for them first, though.
Appreciate that you have this in bulk quantities. We use this as a rooting hormone and as a potting mix and soil supplement. Kelp meal is rich in minerals and micro-nutrients and contains growth hormones that support healthy root growth.
Helps me keep the ants down on my property. Place outside and keeps ants down even in your house.
I grow flats of this for my pet pigs, because of the high nutritional content. They love it. I find them waiting at the growing location every afternoon waiting for their fave. I've grown beautiful flats of pea sprouts and alfalfa for them too, but they turn up their snouts and walk away.
Top notch fertilizer and great store
The seeds popped up in no time. They are of excellent quality. I will buy again from Grow Organic. Thank you.
I purchased a can along with a sharpening tool for hand cutters. The Felco cleaner a
