They have started giving out green leaves already . Great purchase !! All the plants live and well and growing well !! Review: These things grow! - When my package of 9 strawberry plants arrived in a plastic bag, I thought they would die. The roots looked dried out and tangled up. There were no live leaves. The only sign of life was the stem - the base of the plants, and they were white. I took them out of the package and left them overnight outside in a bowl of water. Next morning, they all looked at least alive. The white base had grown into buds of new leaves. I then separated the plants, and put each in a separate 2 or 4 inch pot with very sandy soil. Within a couple of days new leaves sprouted from all the plants - and there were 11 plants, not 9. I then transplanted them into larger pots with gravelly sandy soil. They have all thrived. I live in Hawaii, and this the summer, so I don't know how they'll end up - I've never seen nor heard of strawberries growing in Hawaii. Right now I'm optimistic, though. They're already sending out runners, so I may try using some as ground covers, and the others for fruit. We have free range chickens and rats here, so I built a screen over the pots, so the fruits won't get stolen.

Unreliable Company
Plants arrived showing no signs of growth, there were a few plants that had brown leaves. I followed the directions provided on sellers website, soaking and planting in the soil suggested. 1/2 the plants had growth while the others did not. After about a week the plants that had growth started to brown. The seller has a 30 day policy and refuses to honor stating they will not replace because I must have done something wrong.

Follow the instructions closely.
I received a couple more than I ordered which is probably due to any possible loss during shipping. They are a decent size and not wimpy looking. This, the packaging and instructions makes me think this company cares about sending a quality product. There's a link to a video that shows you how to take care of them. They all seemed healthy and looked good. They are still growing and thriving. The begining process takes patience, but so far good value for the money and I am happy. I came back and ordered more.

Great quality and healthy plants!
I ordered these to put in above ground planters and knew that I was planting a little late, but they are doing great! I got them on June 9th and they are all flowering as of June 28th. I got more than I ordered and they all survived, even one that I have kept in a jar of water under a grow light since I didn't have enough space to plant it! I haven't gotten to taste them yet but will try to update my review with how they are, but so far I have high hopes for them!

ordered ten, got twelve, all growing well!
Ordered these and got them in the mail soon after. They looked like hell, but that was only sand from where they were growing. I kept them in the fridge for a few days before planting them in party cups, (no time to plant them sooner). I trimmed the roots back a bit and planted in some home mixed potting soil (compost peat, coco coir, bone meal, blood meal, worm castings and sand) and put them under my lights. They perked up overnight and where visibly better and doing well in just a few days. Now they all have 2-3 new leaves and doing great. Still have to harden them off and put outside. But so far very happy with them.
