Mourning and New Beginnings

The strawberries just don't seem to be making it. I think it's time to mourn what we've lost (a vibrant, world-class, envy-of-all backyard farmers strawberry patch) and decide what we're going to put in that planter instead of berries. Maybe we can get some kind of verticillium wilt resistant variety, but I'm not too confident about that.

So, what shall we grow instead?
