When most plants tend to hide away during the months of autumn, this fruiting evergreen comes to life. Beautiful creamy-white, sometimes pink flowers bloom in 5cm long panicles and strawberry-like fruits mature in autumn. The red, edible fruits can be used to make jellies and jams due to their high sugar content. The Strawberry Tree is a shrubby, spreading evergreen. It will fruit in the UK if positioned in full sun and placed in a sheltered area. It can withstand temperatures as low as -15C.
- We have excellent quality, 5cm tall seedling plants on offer.

- The intended main use of this plant is to grow food for human consumption. We always recommend further research to learn the different ways in which the food source can be prepared and consumed.
