How to grow wild strawberry

When to plant wild strawberry

Wild strawberry is a low native groundcover that flowers in spring (NC State: April to May) and follows with small, sweet-tart red berries in summer. Plant or divide in spring in fertile, well-drained soil; it spreads by runners to form colonies and prefers the cooler temperatures of spring and fall, slowing or going dormant in summer heat.

Wild Strawberry is timed by season rather than your frost dates, so the planting calendar does not generate ZIP-specific dates for it. Check the cited sources below to fine-tune for your area.
