Notes

'Ruby Ann' everbearing strawberry (Fragaria ananassa 'Ruby Ann') is a fruit for containers and food gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full sun and average to moist, loamy soil. Red flowers open in spring, summer, and autumn, so you can expect berries over a long season. Deer usually look elsewhere for a meal. Birds visit the plant too.

Pairs well with Salad burnet, Thai basil, and Citronelle coral bells.
