No love, I've never grown one... you may be better off just getting the plant itself (mine were dirt cheap and brill).... it could be tricky to grow from seed. xxx

my MIL does them, and i think it maybe a bit late for this year. MIL's are flowering, and they will turn into strawberries in june/july. I could be wrong tho x

I think FEDup might be right about it being a little late from seed, most strawberry plants i've seen are big and bushy right about now. Good luck, might be worth a google, there's lots of gardening tips out there!
