what delicious morsels, tasted for the first time in Burma (according to my mother in law planted by the japanese)and have never tasted another strawberry to match.
However, a friend of mine shared a couple of 'Mara des Bois' plants with me last year (this year, I have about a dozen -- they runner nicely!), and I have to say the flavor and aroma of those berries comes very, very close to alpines. So far, productivity has been pretty sparse, though... I think I need an "official" raised bed for strawberries where I can pamper them.
I've grown these little delights for years. I never have to bother buying seed because a fallen berry left in the dirt starts many new plants that can be transplanted when big enough. We've just moved from coastal climate to hot, dry, arid climate so am keeping my "Alpines" in pots for now. May experiment to see how they do in this heat and clay soil.
