Water regularly in dry spells and while the fruit is developing, and feed with a high-potash liquid fertiliser once flowering begins. Mulch with straw to keep the fruit clean and hold moisture. Remove runners to put the plant's energy into fruiting, unless you want to propagate new plants, and net the ripening fruit if birds are a problem. The flowers attract bees and other pollinating insects.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCultural Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Strawberry 'Loran'\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fragaria x ananassa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFully Grown Height and Spread:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 20-30cm tall and 30-40cm wide (variety dependent)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth Habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Compact, clump-forming with short runners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect For:\u003c\/strong\u003e Beds, borders, raised planters, containers and hanging baskets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bright green, trifoliate leaves with serrated margins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlowering Time:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spring to summer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting Position:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full sun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moist, well-drained, slightly acidic soil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardiness:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fully hardy in the UK; plants in pots and baskets appreciate a little protection round the roots in a hard winter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeasonal Interest:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fruit from late spring through to autumn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hardy perennial fruiting plant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KOKE House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54061545816330,"sku":"COL-6X10.5-STR-LORX1","price":23.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0957\/2479\/8218\/files\/5_d13b1aff-2fa5-4ce8-8125-2ff7059958ec.png?v=1793895435","url":"https:\/\/kokehouse.co.uk\/products\/col-6x10-5-str-lorx1","provider":"KOKE House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
