🪴 How to Grow Strawberries Indoors:
✅ Light
Strawberries need 6–8 hours of bright, direct light daily. A sunny windowsill may work, but most indoor growers benefit from using a full-spectrum grow light to ensure consistent fruiting.
✅ Container
Use a pot with good drainage, ideally 15–20cm deep. Hanging baskets, window boxes, or standard pots are all suitable for growing strawberries indoors.
✅ Soil
For best results, use a light, nutrient-rich, and well-draining compost.
🪴 Our premium houseplant potting mix is a perfect choice—it retains moisture while providing excellent drainage and aeration, helping strawberry roots stay healthy and productive.
✅ Watering
Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Check regularly, especially in warm indoor spaces.
✅ Pollination
Indoors, strawberries need a helping hand to pollinate:
-
Gently shake flowering stems
-
Or use a small paintbrush to transfer pollen between blooms
✅ Temperature
Strawberries grow best in temperatures between 16–24°C. Keep them away from cold drafts and direct heat sources like radiators.
✅ Feeding
Use a liquid organic feed or fruiting plant fertiliser every 2–3 weeks during active growth.

Very happy with the product and the service, thanks 😊
Thank you so much for holding back the delivery due to it clashing with the funeral of my dear mother in law, it was truly appreciated. My wife was also taken aback by your thoughtfulness by including a lovely bouquet of dried flowers and card with kind words. The flowers will always remind us of Elaine and sit pride of place on the sideboard in our dining room. You are truthfully some of the very best people we have dealt with, online and on the phone.
Amazing, personalised customer service! Always very friendly, approachable and dedicated. Thank you!
Items were as described, delivered promptly and very well packaged. Would order from this company again.
