I grow Honeoye and have found them to be reliable and very tasty although
often odd shaped.  With adequate water they can produce fairly large berries
but not as big as the CA grown commercial berries.  They are not as prolific
in producing daughter plants as my Fort Laramie everbearing plants.

  I'm replacing a garden retaining wall and so have to move some strawberry
plants, or plant new ones.  I have Tristar and an unknown June-bearing
variety, and I'm not especially happy with either.  The berries are OK but
not great.  I see one called "Honeoye" in the catalogs that is supposed to
have really good flavor.  Any suggestions?  Zone 6b, full sun, hot and humid
in the summer.

  Thanks,
  David
