Splendid strawberries
Photoaphy by Yvonne Duivenvoorden.
Think strawberries are finished after the month of June? Well, think again. In addition to the traditional June varieties, there are also ever-bearing and day-neutral strawberry plants that produce fruit all summer long. Unlike the June fruit, day-neutrals are not affected by the length of daylight, so they flower more than once a year and continue all the way into September.
For more delicious recipes featuring berries pick up the July 2004 issue of Canadian Living magazine. On page 109 (Berried Treasures) you'll find recipes for three divine, old-fashioned desserts.
