    Don't know anything about plugs. I do know they generally use plugs to plant in late summer or early fall. I may be interested in getting some for this fall. Do you have any sources? As for a wholesaler for bare root strawberries we've always ordered ours from Krohne Plant Farms,Inc.

They are our cheapest source and always given us good service.

Regards to the list:

We're looking to buy several thousand strawberry plants.  We have purchased bare-root ones in the past from Indiana Berry and Daisy companies.  I'm seeing strawberry plant plugs advertised lately, but they're more than double in price.  Would anyone care to comment on the advantages/disadvantages of bare-root vs plugs or recommend a wholesale plant dealer?

Thank you.
