New bed of strawberries - planted 2+ months ago - just
starting to bear - putting out quantities of "aggressive" runners.
Bed is very small; no place to root runners.

Should I:

1. Cut them off and replant elsewhere? If so,
can I plant

(a) between roses - yes, there is room

(b) between veggies - if so, which to avoid?

2. Enlarge bed - terrible nuisance, have to dig up
horrible lawn and enrich - big job.

3. Cut off and discard.

Help..they're about to come in through my window g

This is So. Calif Coastal.

TIA

Give them away to neighbors & folks in your garden club
or toss them in the compost.

Gardening is supposed to be relaxing. Chill.

I have been thinking of putting in a new strawberry patch. Mine is good it
just doesn't give enough. They never make it in the house I eat them. So I
need to put in way more. I was scoping out a flower bed that would look
better with strawberries.
