Notes

'Surecrop' strawberry (Fragaria 'Surecrop') is a fruit for food gardens, pollinator gardens, and ground cover. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun, average moisture, and loamy or clay soil. White flowers open in early to late spring and again in early to late summer, and bees visit them. It sits low on the menu for deer. The evergreen plant stays 6 to 9 inches tall and spreads 12 to 18 inches.

Pairs well with Joan J raspberry, Salad burnet, and Southern Comfort coral bells.
