i gots strawberries!

The other weekend, I stopped by the flower nursery to pick up a few succulents to spruce up the patio. They were giving away small strawberry plants as gift with purchase. I planted one in a pot and it’s growing! I have three little strawberries- which is quite a miracle seeing as anything besides succulents seem to die a cruel, quick and mysterious death around these parts. They’re not very big and a little mangled/ gnarly looking, but cute and special nonetheless. When are you supposed to pick them? Do you think they’ll grow any bigger? or when they turn red, is that as big as they’ll go?
