Strawberry off cuts ready to plant.
Hello! I have two small strawberry off cuts in pots. Potted a couple of weeks ago while still runners and detached 72hours ago. These strong wee plants are ready for planting with roots even showing out the bottom of the pot. $2 each or $5 for both.
My strawberry plant was an off cut about 10 years ago from a friend and has grown at both my previous Spreydon home and moved with us a year and a half ago to my new Hoon Hay home. It stays green in winter and survived past frosts well.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
