[debjay]

Hi all  :)
Has anybody any idea why my friends strawberries are dying.  :'(
they are from the same runners as we have,this is their first year.
They had some nice fruit on but now no fruit and dead leaves
any clues ???

debjay,..last year i lost a number of alpine stawberries due to vine weevil grubs,..i am not saying this is the cause in your case  but it is worth having a look ...,..so lift a plant or two and see if you can spot these white grubs at the roots,........ if there are not any roots left its proberbly true ,..good luck
