The perpetual fruiting alpine strawberry produces a constant supply of small, but very sweet, bright red fruits, held dangling on long erect upright stems. This plant makes a solid clump and runs barely at all. Fruiting begins in early summer and often continues in a sheltered spot until the first frost of winter! Not to be confused with Fragaria vesca the "wild strawberry", both of which are good to eat!
