Strawberries in April

I bought these plants from Gurney's last spring.  They are Everbearing.  The instructions said to pinch the blossoms until July the first year and then let them go.  I did as instructed.  We did get some strawberries last summer, but not a huge amount.  This year - well, I don't think we are going to be lacking for fresh strawberries.  Here are a couple pictures that Brian took of the patch yesterday.  From a standing position, without moving any leaves, I counted about a dozen green berries!!  And yes, that was on April 27th.  Wow!  What a spring.
