Hi Bobbyboy
So you come from Dublin - it's a wonderful city.
Re strawberry plants. The suckers can over winter in the ground, with a bit of protection. There are two good articles here:

Can't wait for the morning to see how many strawberry suckers we have!
Thanks for the nudge.
Thanks for the advice.As i am an appartment deweller my balcony is my garden.I was tidying it earlier and used some cuttings (dried)from my tomato plants to insulate the strawberries for the winter.Will i need to water them from time to time or do the sort of hibernate.Thanks again for your time Fiona.
Would it be a good idea to put bubble wrap around them since they are in a pot? Or is that only really necessary if temperatures get down really low like here where they wrap most things up for the winter in a covering of pine branches
