    This variety (Elsanta) is beloved of growers and the supermarkets because of its `long shelf life` - ie its hard and not tasty. They call it `the bouncing strawberry`.

    They are unlikely to come in pots as they're are more than likely to be runners. They'll probably come in a jiffy bag with the roots in a plastic bag. You'll need to soak the roots in water for 24hrs before planting. Soak them as soon as they arrive and get them planted the following day.

    As for size, if planting in rows in the ground you'll need about 12in between plants and 18 between rows. If you want then in pots you'll need at least 9" pots.

    For slick detective and runner
    me too, i was having problems and getting error messages also but it's now my order has gone through successfully. I think the error occured because i was using firefox to complete the order. As when i decided to try and complete my purchase in internet explorer it worked fine. Hope this helps
