Strawberries

We always look forward to seeing strawberries in our garden-- they are the first fruit to ripen in spring.

Why We Love Them

Besides being a tasty snack that grows back year after year, strawberries are a member of the rose family and have a lovely, fragrant scent.

Requirements

Make sure your strawberries soak up at least six hours of sun a day.

Nature's Masterpiece

Belgium has an entire museum dedicated to strawberries.

Match Point

The Wimbledon tennis match typically occurs at the peak of strawberry season, so spectators often snack on the fruit mixed with cream.
