Strawberry

Strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa) is a widely cultivated perennial plant native to the Pacific Northwest of North America, including British Columbia, California, Oregon, and Washington. Known for its edible fruit and ornamental value, this plant thrives in moist, light to heavy soil with a pH between 5.5 and 6.5. Its distinctive features include small white flowers followed by sweet, red berries. Strawberries can be propagated through transplanting bare root plants or dividing runners. They grow to about 0.3 meters in both height and width, making them suitable for gardens and landscapes where their attractive foliage and fruit add visual interest.
