This delightful berry is so bright it sparkles on the vine. 'Sparkle' has been famous in the home garden for excellent flavor and high quality and small to medium sized berries that are perfect for jams and freezing. An extremely vigorous variety, 'Sparkle' is an excellent choice for beginning gardeners as well as old pros along with pick-your-own operations because of its high yields and great taste. A further advantage enjoyed by 'Sparkle' is that its later blooms will usually escape early frosts without injury making it one of the best choices for more northern gardens. These bright red Strawberries mature in late June and will be ready for you to eat by the handful! When planting, be sure to give them plenty of room to spread since overcrowding can cause reduced berry production as the plants age.
