Native Americans called this strawberry heart-seed berry, and the small sweet berries were combined with cornmeal to make bread. Naturalist William Bartram encountered them in paradisiacal abundance in his travels in the East in the 1770s. The French, who called them Fraises du Bois or berries of the woods, gathered them in woven baskets every spring. Fragaria vesca, with crinkled grass green leaves, bloom and fruit in spring meadows in the East. A clump grower, 'Yellow Wonder' has aromatic fruits melding sweetness with notes of pineapple and rose, which is unsurprising, as all are members of the rose family. The plants are everbearing—take care when harvesting as the 1/2-1" long fruits are softer than regular strawberries when ripe and are easily damaged. A beautiful edging for herb beds in well-drained soils and containers, best planted in masses for a good harvest.
