Fragaria × ananassa ‘Gasana’ is a reblooming strawberry with high ornamental value, appreciated for its deep pink blossoms and its consistent production of edible fruits. This variety stands out for its compact and slightly trailing habit, making it particularly suitable for hanging baskets, pots, planters, and decorative edible arrangements. Its deciduous bright green foliage creates an elegant contrast with the colorful flowers, which appear generously throughout the season and attract pollinating insects. The red strawberries from the blossoms are flavorful, with juicy and pleasant flesh, ideal for fresh consumption. Well-suited to Quebec's climatic conditions, ‘Gasana’ prefers a very sunny exposure and rich, well-drained soil, offering a successful combination of aesthetics, productivity, and ease of cultivation.
