The small wild strawberry (Fragaria vesca) is a real flavor bomb. This strong, hardy plant produces an abundance of small, deliciously sweet, and fragrant strawberries from late spring into summer. Perfect for snacking on in the garden or as edible groundcover in the vegetable garden, border, or pot.

Grows best in a sunny to partially shaded spot in humus-rich, well-drained soil. Water regularly during dry spells and harvest often to ensure the plant continues to produce new fruit. Easy to care for and returns faithfully every year.

Organic/non-organic
This planting material comes from a small-scale grower without an official organic certificate. But don't worry, we're certain it's pesticide-free.

Stronger plants, honest photos
Our plants are grown outdoors and are completely winter-hardy. They aren't young greenhouse plants, but stronger, perennials that have been growing for a while and therefore have a well-developed root system. By growing in wind, rain, and temperature fluctuations, they are better hardened, more robust, and adapt more quickly after planting than herbs grown in a warm greenhouse this year. Conservatory plants often look greener and fuller, but are younger and less resilient.

Because our plants follow the natural rhythm of the seasons, they can look bare or less attractive in winter. Many perennials die back (partially) above ground and store their energy underground. Sometimes the pot may seem empty, but don't worry: the strong roots are alive and will ensure the plant sprouts vigorously again in spring.

The photos show what the plants look like in winter, so you get a fair idea of ​​what to expect during this season.
