How many strawberry plants in a 12" tub?

[rustylady]

im going to plant my strawberries next year innto those stackable planters that poundstrechers sell three in each one including the top but i may also put a flower such as a begonia in the top to attract bees for pollination purposes to hope to get the harvest off to a good start

You don't actually need to plant a flower (especially a begonia) as strawberries produce their own flowers.

thanks just seen it in a garden centre done and thought there was a purpose is it ok to put three in to one of those also why especially not a begonia do they take up alot of space

Sorry Teengrower I just hate begonias!! As to the planters, I haven't seen them so I don't know how big they are.

Got one of the 36 hole strawberry planters and got 12 Sonata plants.

My question is can you mix variety of strawberry plants in the same planter as there seems to be a lot of offers on at the moment.
