SUMMER BREEZE CHERRY BLOSSOM STRAWBERRY

Fragaria × ananassa is the garden strawberry, and this selection earns its place twice over: through the season it carries cherry-blossom-pink flowers — uncommon among the usual white-flowered strawberries — followed by sweet, full-sized red berries. Plants are compact and lightly trailing, equally at home in beds, borders, hanging baskets, and containers, where bloom and ripe fruit often appear together. An everbearing habit keeps flowers and berries coming from early summer into fall.
