We’re planning on growing strawberries this year. I was planning on putting them in pots with plant hangers on the sunny side of the fence, my wife suggested building a vertical tower with some dollar store tri-pots.

Both ideas make sense to me so i wanted to see if anyone had any experience/advice on what’s the best way, or if it doesn’t matter, or if there’s a much better idea that we haven’t thought of.

Thanks in advance!

    Not all strawberries are runners, but you’re right about those that are. The good news about runners is that they become more strawberry plants if you give them a chance.

      Ah, I didn’t realized that only some of them put out runners. And you’re right - you do get more strawberries out of the deal. Ours are in a pair of decent sized pots near a pollinator friendly flower bed that we would prefer to be strawberry free though.
