Berries Galore Pink Strawberry
Berries Galore Pink Strawberry is an everbearing hybrid strawberry that delivers continuous harvests throughout the growing season in zones 4 through 9. This AAS Winner produces medium-large fruit saturated with natural sweetness, ripening to deep pink as it matures. The plant grows fast with shiny, deep green foliage and puts out large, early blooms that set fruit reliably. You can expect to harvest ripe berries every 3 to 4 days once production begins, typically 70 to 79 days after planting, making it one of the most productive strawberries you can grow from seed.

Highlights
This everbearing hybrid produces fruit continuously rather than in a single spring flush, meaning you'll have fresh strawberries from early summer right through the growing season. The plants are vigorous runners with excellent vigor and early flowering, getting you to harvest quickly. Medium-large berries arrive saturated with sweetness, and the compact 3-inch spacing requirement means you can grow an abundant crop even in small gardens or containers.
Common Uses
Berries Galore Pink Strawberries are eaten fresh off the vine, where their concentrated sweetness shines on its own. They're also excellent for quick jam and preserve making since you'll have steady harvests rather than a glut of fruit all at once. The continuous production cycle makes them ideal for fresh fruit bowls, desserts, and preserving small batches throughout the summer and into fall.

Care Instructions
Start Indoors
Start seeds indoors 8 to 12 weeks before your last frost date. Sow seeds on moist seed-starting mix and keep them at 70 degrees Fahrenheit. Once the first true leaves appear, transplant seedlings into small 3-inch pots and continue growing under bright light until the plants are sturdy and ready to harden off.
Transplant Outdoors
Harden off seedlings by gradually exposing them to outdoor conditions over 7 to 10 days. Transplant to the garden after the last frost date when soil has warmed slightly. Space plants 3 inches apart in full sun in well-draining soil rich in organic matter.
Harvesting
Berries are ready to pick when they've turned fully deep pink and feel slightly soft to gentle pressure. Harvest every 3 to 4 days once production begins, around 70 to 79 days after planting. Gently twist or cut berries from the plant in the morning when they're cool and firm. The everbearing habit means you'll have multiple ripening cycles throughout the season rather than one large harvest.
Pruning
Since Berries Galore Pink Strawberry is an everbearing runner variety, you can manage runners as they develop by either allowing them to spread and fill space or pinching them off to direct energy into fruit production. If grown in containers or tight spacing, removing some runners will increase berry size and fruit quality.

History & Origin
“Berries Galore Pink Strawberry earned AAS (All-America Selections) recognition, a distinction granted to superior new garden varieties after rigorous multi-location trials across North America. This hybrid was developed to bring the productivity of everbearing types into the home garden through seed propagation, rather than relying solely on runner plants. By crossing specific parent lines, breeders created a variety that combines fast growth, early fruiting, and the continuous harvest cycle that commercial growers depend on, but adapted for the home gardener who wants fresh fruit from seed in a single season.”
