OK - before I order them I would like to know if you stake yours and if so, 1 row or 2 of wire and HOW do you do it?

A friend of mine stakes her similar variety with 2 rows of wires. Hers are planted in squares with metal bars at the corners to hold the wires. makes it easier to get at the berries.

Definitely stake.....they are usually heavy croppers and you would'nt want all that lovely fruit to scrape onto the ground would you?
We use 3 posts along a 25ft row and 3 wires. The end posts have 3 inch thick ground stakes butted up to them 'cos we have hellish winds here!

I didn't get round to staking mine and they have done fine for 2 years now so I'm not going to bother.  Remember, next year, you cut them down to the ground in February.

Mine are staked, but more as Aggy implied, supported to stop them flopping on the ground. They're not tied to the wire like the summer ones. It also give me more growing space!

Reference your winds Aggy - keep Munty off the fartichokes!
