Family Rosaceae

Fragaria × ananassa ‘Roman’ is a reblooming ornamental and fruiting strawberry plant known for its particularly decorative and long-lasting deep pink blossoms. This variety forms a compact and well-structured clump, ideal for growing in pots, planters, window boxes, or decorative edible garden beds. Its dark green deciduous foliage creates an elegant contrast with the continuously appearing colorful flowers that attract pollinating insects. The red fruits produced are edible, juicy, and pleasant, adding a gourmet interest to its strong visual appeal. Well-suited to Quebec’s climatic conditions, ‘Roman’ prefers a very sunny exposure and rich, loose, well-drained soil. This cultivar is an excellent choice for combining aesthetics, biodiversity, and prolonged harvesting in small spaces.
