Wild Strawberries

A lawn alternative that comes with its own delicious fruit – what’s not to love? Wild strawberry is an excellent ground cover plant for the Pacific Northwest, adaptable to most soils and happy to thrive on the spectrum of full sun to shade with no mowing required. Not only that, but the beautiful little white flowers it produces will bring a variety of pollinators to your garden.
