Alpine Strawberry ‘Alexandria’

‘Alexandria’ Alpine strawberry (Fragaria vesca), is a charming, runnerless strawberry that brings a bit of wild mountain character into cultivated spaces. Its delicate white flowers and bright red berries create a soft, natural look that fits beautifully into shaded borders, woodland gardens, or tucked beneath shrubs. Unlike commercial strawberries, the fruits are small but intensely flavorful—often described as sweeter and more aromatic than store-bought varieties.

This cultivar dores not spread by runners, staying tidy and small. It does best with some shade in valley gardens along the Wasatch Front. Whether you’re looking to support pollinators, add an edible element to your landscape, or simply enjoy a low-maintenance native plant, alpine strawberry is an easy and rewarding choice.
