Alexandria Alpine Strawberry (Fragaria vesca) Perennial

Beloved throughout Europe, Alexandria produces small, sweet-tart, red fruit with a signature wild strawberry flavor – bright and rich. Like other alpine heirlooms, this is a clumping variety that does not produce runners, making it optimal for smaller spaces and garden borders. Fragrant and loved by pollinators. Everbearing variety.
