Fragaria Chiloensis - Beach Strawberry (1 Gallon)

About this item

Create a lush, natural-looking carpet of greenery with Beach Strawberry, a hardy perennial ground cover native to coastal regions of California and other parts of North and South America. This spreading evergreen or semi-evergreen perennial forms dense mats of glossy, dark green foliage, making it an attractive choice for coastal gardens, borders, and naturalistic landscapes.

Its rounded, three-lobed leaves feature gently toothed edges and spread vigorously from the central crown by above-ground runners, gradually filling in open spaces. In spring, delicate white flowers with five petals add a fresh seasonal display. These blossoms may develop into small, seedy strawberries, providing an extra touch of natural charm.

Well suited to coastal and native gardens, Beach Strawberry is an excellent option for ground cover, erosion control on suitable sites, and filling spaces beneath shrubs or along garden edges. Its spreading habit and attractive foliage make it a valuable addition to low-growing, wildlife-friendly landscapes.
