Refreshed Strawberry bed

After a bit of thought (wondering whether to leave as was for a 2nd season & let nature take it's course, or refresh & replant) I decided to dig out & replant the strawberry bed, propagate some new plants & get rid of all the runners & dead leaves etc.

So I now have a refreshed & renewed bed of healthy 2nd year plants that should crop well this summer.

I also have 25+ strong new plants that I plan to put up in long trays in full sun on the patio as trailing plants off the ground to avoid slugs & snails.
