Here are the Ozark Beauty strawberry plants now. I bought them, bare root on Amazon, in early February.
I think the growth looks quite healthy and vigorous. I did give them a dose of Miracid fertilizer, because I read they need acid conditions. Growth might even be a bit too lush now. I'll just use water for a few weeks. They have been producing a few flower buds. I cut those off so the plants can concentrate on growing for now. The same for a couple of runners.
The weather has been cool and rainy, 60s during the day and 40s at night. I imagine warmer weather and more sun will stimulate growth even more.
Here they were when I planted them, 10 Feb 16. I wondered if they would grow. They did - every plant.
