Beach Strawberry (Fragaria chiloensis)

Beach Strawberry (Fragaria chiloensis) is one of the two strawberry species used to create the modern garden strawberry. In spring to early summer, it blooms with beautiful white flowers, which are later replaced by unique red fruits. Local bees and butterflies pollinate flowers and its fruits draw the attention of a variety of insects, birds and mammals. It has dark-green, glossy leaves that turn red in fall. It has a creeping habit and spreads at a moderate rate. Plant in very low to low moisture, and in sandy soil. From Calscape
