    A cross between the Native wild strawberry (Fragaria virginiana,) and a Chilean native (Fragaria chiloensis). They are small-fruited everbearing plants. Larger than a wild strawberry but smaller than common varieties of red strawberries. Culture is the same, although interplanting with red strawberries will increase yield. Often sold as pineberries due to their unique flavor, which is reminiscent of pineapple.
