Notes

'Yellow Wonder' wild strawberry (Fragaria vesca 'Yellow Wonder') is a fruit for food gardens, containers, and ground cover. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It blooms in spring and again in summer, and bees visit the flowers. Birds like the fruit too. Plants spread 12 to 24 inches, so give them room.

Pairs well with Jack Frost Siberian bugloss, Sweet violet, and Lemon balm.
