Not a regular strawberry plant! The fruits on this one are round and smooth, I think. They ARE edible, though I've never eaten one. This is a pretty large shrug....about 15 feet high or so.



Hope that helps!

That is the fruit of the strawberry shrub. I believe they're edible. The birds will probably get it!

If I remember, I will photograph this shrub again, when more fruits are showing.

I enjoyed your photos. Lush and full of color. We are entering the brown season! *sigh*

It was a pretty day here yesterday. We did have overcast in the morning and evening, but in between, there was some sun...

We seem to have a brown season here too...........that's when it's supposed to be raining, but isn't.

I'm glad you enjoyed the photos!
