We purchased 5 strawberry plants at Lowes.  Doesn't have the variety, but only that it blooms all summer.  I will plant them south side upper box. 

Variety:  Fragaria x ananassa hybrids, but some are of the species Fragaria vesca.

There were three landscape items given us when they installed the grass--these yews, a pine tree that died and a deciduous tree for the parking strip.  The last two died but they did replace the tree.  We had to replace the pine tree ourselves.   They are really rangy, but do provide some plants on the north side of the house where we never go.
