An excellent mid-season Dutch variety, producing heavy crops of glossy, orange-red fruit with a delicious sweet flavour. Now available as two year old plants, you can expect to harvest 400-500g of fruit in the first year, which is 4-5 times more fruit than a standard strawberry plant would produce! A supermarket favourite, Elsanta strawberries have a good storage life and are less prone to bruising than many varieties. The juicy berries can be picked from mid-June through to mid-July and are perfect for making your own jams or for freezing to enjoy when out of season. Height: 20cm (8). Spread: 30cm (12).
"Alright, let's dive into the world of bargain UK supermarkets, because who doesn't love a good saving, right? When you think 'bargain,' Aldi and Lidl immediately spring to mind, and honestly, they've completely shaken up the grocery scene here. They're masters at keeping Strawberry 'Elsanta' (Mother Plants) prices super low, partly because their business model focuses on a smaller range of products, often own-brand, which really cuts down on the complexity and costs associated with stocking hundreds of different brands. But here's the cool part about their Strawberry 'Elsanta' (Mother Plants) stockists and suppliers: a lot of the time, the very same factories and farms that supply the 'posher', more expensive supermarkets (and their well-known brands) are also supplying Aldi and Lidl with their own-label versions. So, that delicious yogurt you're scoffing or those fresh berries you got for a steal? There's a really good chance they came from the same reputable suppliers, just packed and branded differently. It’s all about these supermarkets having direct relationships with their suppliers, cutting out the middle-man, and passing those savings directly onto us, the savvy shoppers. It really makes you think twice about brand loyalty when you can often get the same, or very similar, quality for a fraction of the price, proving that 'bargain' doesn't necessarily mean compromising on quality when it comes to who's actually supplying the goods!
