Do I trim the leaves on my strawberry plants now or in the spring?  Thanks

    I take off any damaged or very yellowed ones just now and then usually leave them. As they deteriorate, I remove them so that the plants are nice and 'clean' over winter. 

    If there are any fruits on the plants still to ripen, I also take off any big ones which are blocking sunlight.

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
