I have a thornless variety here in WA. It produces huge yellow honey sweet berries. It is not as invasive as yours seem to be. I can't remember the variety. It produces early and right up until the frost. I'm hoping to find something similar. At about 1800 feet I don't expect to get too "chilled". May have to spread a few ice cubes around. Nah, let me re-think that. I want easy stuff. I'm "real-tired", and don't want to work too hard. Nalu, it will be fun to see how your berries do. I'm going to miss my "alpine" strawberries. White, custard like texture and mild (some one has said pineapple) flavor. My sister started them from wild berries and saved me the seeds. Wow, took a year to be big enough to set outside. They hold their own against my weeds here.
Life goes on, with you or without you.
