What's growing on, Beehaw?

It's been a flurry of activity this week - we've been hosting a friend who's here to build out his photography portfolio. As part of that, there were a number of chores and tasks I had to delay in order for him to get some of the shots he was looking for, followed by mad dashes of activity and pausing for shots while in the doing. He ended up with some ~1200 photos and maybe an hour or two of drone footage:

I definitely tend to see the work left to do in the gardens instead of what's been accomplished unless I'm showing things to people, so let me just say this:
I'm really impressed by the work you're putting in for your gardens, and how they're coming along!
What's growing on with you all?
Hah we've got some crazy tall varieties too, some are about a foot high. It's a shame you didn't get much off of them this year, can I ask how you fertilized them?
On the off-chance that the question is not rhetorical, they're classified as an herbaceous ground cover, usually growing between 5 to 12 inches/ 12.5 to 30.5 cm depending on species and cultivar
I just sprinkle some berry food on top. I don't fertilize much. I'm not sure they get enough sun since they're on a covered porch. They know get a few hours each day I think
That sounds right, ours don't generally need much feeding so you're probably spot on about the sun access. IME they need around 6-8 hours for a decent fruit set but I can imagine that might be tough if they're under cover
Yup. Wish I could encourage throwing runners because they'd get more sun that way but I just enjoy having them. They're hardy little dudes
