Alpine, or woodland, strawberries are often overlooked in favor of more current American hybrids. Unlike hybrids, the alpine strawberry produces fruit "true" to seed, making it easy to share.
Although their delicate sweet-flavor fruit are not as prolific or large as those of hybrids, simple-to-grow alpines produce from June through October with as little as 4 hours of sunlight per day!
Tip: you can grow creamy white strawberries that birds tend to ignore and they are also frost hardy! Try growing the varieties Pineapple Crush or White Soul (both are perennials).
