Native throughout most of the northern hemisphere, alpine strawberry is that amazingly sweet wild strawberry you remember from childhood.  Small fruits pack superb flavor.  Plants are vigorous in a garden setting as they grow wild in meadows and all sorts of sunny places.  At our sanctuary, alpine strawberry grows in shadey wet areas as well as on top of the open dry oak hillside.  Very easy to grow and fun to find in fruit, we reccomend adding this to your native edible garden.
