Growth Timeline

  • Growing Season: Most fruits/veggies have their peak growing season starting in spring and extending through fall. They need a runway of consecutive warm days and nights (from 60-90) to produce fruit.
  • First Harvest: Fruits/veggies take 2-3 months to bear fruit and/or reach ripeness.
  • Final Harvest: Fruits/veggies start to give out between late summer and early fall in most climates. Some plants, such as strawberries, will become dormant in winter before popping back into action in for spring, but most fruiting plants will need to be replaced after their season is over.

COLD CLIMATES

  • Fruits/veggies require nighttime temperatures to consistently be in the 50s or above to survive.

WARM CLIMATES:

Support Trailing Plants: Unless you are growing smaller plants (jalapeño or micro-tomatoes) you might want to use stakes, trellises, or cages to support the plants as they grow. This will prevent them from sprawling on the ground. Train the vines to grow vertically for better air circulation and easier harvesting.

Yellow Wonder Alpine Strawberry (Fragaria vesca 'Yellow Wonder') is a charming, everbearing heirloom variety producing an abundance of small, golden-yellow fruits with a sweet, mild, honeyed flavor that delights and surprises in equal measure. Unlike standard red strawberries, the pale yellow fruits are invisible to birds — a remarkable natural advantage that protects the harvest and allows fruits to ripen fully on the plant for peak sweetness and flavor complexity. Compact, productive, and endlessly charming, Yellow Wonder is one of the most rewarding and unique specialty strawberries available for the organic kitchen garden.

Grown using 100% certified organic practices, Yellow Wonder Alpine Strawberry arrives with a Professional Grade root system ready for immediate transplanting into garden beds, raised beds, containers, or woodland-edge settings. It thrives in full sun to part shade with consistently moist, well-drained soil and is notably adaptable to a wide range of growing conditions. Its compact, non-running habit makes it exceptionally well-suited to container growing, raised bed edging, interplanting with ornamentals, and small-space kitchen gardens where its delicate white flowers, golden fruits, and tidy habit deliver both edible and ornamental value throughout the entire growing season.

  • Golden Yellow Bird-Resistant Fruits — Pale yellow fruits are invisible to birds, allowing the harvest to ripen fully on the plant for peak sweetness and flavor — a remarkable natural advantage over standard red strawberry varieties.
  • Sweet Honeyed Flavor — Small golden fruits deliver a distinctively sweet, mild, honey-like flavor that surprises and delights, making Yellow Wonder a prized specialty item for fresh eating and gourmet desserts.
  • Everbearing Season-Long Harvest — Produces continuous flushes of golden fruit from late spring through the first frost, delivering a reliable extended harvest from compact, self-contained plants without invasive runners.
  • Compact Non-Running Habit — Self-contained growth without runners makes Yellow Wonder ideal for containers, raised bed edging, pathway borders, and small-space edible gardens where tidy, manageable plants are essential.
  • Certified Organic Heirloom Heritage — Grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers from carefully selected heirloom seed stock, delivering clean, vitamin C-rich, antioxidant-packed fruits safe and delicious for the whole family.

These 4" healthy live plants thrive in full sun to part shade with consistently moist, well-drained, compost-rich soil — water regularly to keep soil evenly moist and apply a balanced organic fertilizer at planting and again in midsummer to sustain continuous golden fruit production throughout the season. Transplant after last frost; first fruits typically appear 60–90 days from transplant. Days to first harvest: approximately 60–90 days.

We take great care to ensure our seedlings are healthy and well-established before they’re shipped. We pre-germinate the organic seeds and grow them up to 12 weeks before shipping them as mature plants ready for transplant. Seedlings typically arrive within 1-4 days.
