Krazykangaroo's Edible FruitsUpdate: 507 days 2hrsComments: -
I LOVE alpine strawberries and grow white and also red fruited kinds. They are easy to grow and love light shade.
The fruits are very small but have a strong, lucious strawberry taste. The plants are clumping and most alpine varieties don't produce runners. They easily reseed themselves so you don't have to worry there. They do well in pots or in the ground. I have mine planted in a shadehouse where they look great among the ferns.
