I love strawberries and really, who doesn’t? I love them so much but they are often pricey, especially when it is not strawberry season so I decided to learn how to grow them myself. I found a bunch of hanging strawberry gardens and today I am going to tell you about my favourite one. I purchased the Hanging Strawberry Garden by Gardeners’ Choice and have been using it more than any others. Why has it been used more than the others? Well the main reasons are that it works, it grows the strawberries year round and it was easy to use. For 10$ plus shipping and handling, I received 2 hanging basket, 6 live plants, an easy guide and a recipe for strawberry jam. I set up my hanging garden immediately. Because it has been nice outside lately I opted to use both baskets, one indoors and one outdoors, to compare the results. They were hard to compare because both locations provided my plants the sunlight needed to be able to grow giant strawberries that were delicious and nutritious. The strawberries were actually better than any strawberry I purchased in a store. Why? Well that is because they were fresh, sweet and huge.

My kids decided to have a competition with me to see who could grow better strawberries. We each took a pot, some planting soil and the live plants. We then each followed the easy to understand instructions and started planting our strawberry plants. In 60 days we both ended up with strawberries. It was hard to tell who won because both plants produced sweet, juicy and giant strawberries. In the end I guess the whole family won because this the Hanging Strawberry Garden was easy to use, produced delicious and nutritious strawberries and was a lot cheaper than going to the store to purchase the same quantity of strawberries that we were able to harvest fresh at home.

The Hanging Strawberry Garden by Gardeners’ Choice is my favorite strawberry grower. I am able to use it year round, indoors in the cold winter month and outdoors during the warm summers. The plants are beautiful and fragrant so I love having them hanging by the window because they make my house smell and look good. The Hanging Strawberry Garden is also convenient because I can pick the strawberries fresh and not have to worry about them spoiling in my fridge. I have saved a ton of money using the Hanging Strawberry Garden because the plants yield so many strawberries and daughter plants that my 10$ investment has lasted me a lot longer than the 3 boxes of strawberries that I would have purchased in store for the same price.

I was truly shocked at how amazing the Hanging Strawberry Garden really is. The Hanging Strawberry Garden was cost effective which is great in today’s tough economic times. Simple is also something I look for and since my small kids were able to set this up on their own using the instructions it is definitely easy to use. The most important point is that the Hanging Strawberry Garden produced some of the most delicious and giant strawberries, better than I purchase at the store. The strawberry jam recipe was also delicious and made for a great morning spread.
