Fragaria vesca, commonly called woodland strawberry, is a small-fruited, everbearing wild strawberry that is native to Europe and Asia. Varieties of the species are found in North America both naturally and as introduced. This is a compact, 4-8” tall plant. Numerous, small, 5-petaled white flowers with yellow centers appear throughout summer. Flowers are followed by edible, bright red strawberries (1/2” long) that may be harvested throughout summer. Flowers and fruit are usually simultaneously present on plants in summer. Genus name comes from the Latin word fraga meaning strawberry presumably from fragrans meaning fragrant in reference to the perfume of the fruit. ~ How to start from seed ~ To start indoors, refrigerate seeds for two weeks to a month. Srinkle seeds on top of a seed-starting mixture and mist well. Put in a warm spot, such as a sunny window, until the plants come up, which can take two weeks to a month. Keep moist while germinating, but not overly wet. Once the plants are up, move them to a cooler location to prevent the growth of soil bacteria. Alternatively, you can start Woodland Strawberry seeds outdoors in colder climates. Scatter the seeds in a weed-free bed in early spring making sure the soil doesn't dry out and kill the young seedlings. In the future, alpines will reseed themselves if they like their growing location.
