Notes

'Strawberry Blonde' strawberry (Fragaria ananassa 'Strawberry Blonde') is a fruit for food gardens, containers, and pollinator gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, loamy or clay soil. It grows 6 to 12 inches tall and spreads 12 to 24 inches in a clumping mound. Bees visit the spring blooms, and the evergreen leaves stay green through the year.

Pairs well with Genovese basil, Berggarten sage, Bouquet dill, and Joan J raspberry.
