    No, it’s just the right time to plant the rhizomes or plants. I have some if you need them. I’ll have to find out how much postage. I live in the Bay of Islands.

    My strawberry plants had vigorous growth during winter but the leaves look like wild strawberries. Now looking very sad and limp. Do I need to dig these up and replant new ones.
