How to grow alpine strawberries – expert tips for healthy plants and tasty harvests

Alpine strawberries fruits and flowers

Alpine strawberries are a unique and delicious type of strawberry to grow and offer an alternative to more commonly-seen strawberries. The fruits are smaller, but are produced over a long time and come in red, yellow, or cream types.

In my time as a kitchen gardener, alpine strawberries were highly sought-after by the chefs I grew fruit and vegetables for. The plants are simple to grow and can be utilized in many different ways. They can be used as ground cover in shady areas or work brilliantly as edging plants along borders, paths, or raised beds. So, if you're interested in growing strawberries, these are definitely worth considering.
