description for "Strawberry: Fragaria girardus"
The Red Alpine strawberry was developed by Papa Geno's herb farm and produces sweet red berries all summer long. This is a true alpine strawberry that also sends out runners, so you can increase your plants every year. Use this hardy and vigorous plant to edge a kitchen or flower border. Gardeners in northern zones should keep the tender perennials and desirable annual herbs indoors during the cold months.
