Kay, what are they?
I've not met them myself, but this person wasn't too impressed http://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/wordofmouth/2010/apr/01/pineberry-strawberry-waitrose

They are a hybrid of two strawberry plants. I've read all the reviews on them Dovefromabove and to be honest, there are more positive reviews than negative. I think as long as people don't expect them to be something that they are not lol. I like the idea of growing things that not everyone has... that's why I've chosen to get some to give a try; not only that, I've got 6 plants for 5 pound... which is really cheap for these type of plants!
I'll post pictures and keep you updated??
Yes please Kay8
It'll be interesting to know what you think of them Kay - as I said, I've never come across them

I'll let you know... hopefully they aren't disappointing
