Family Rosaceae

Fragaria × ananassa ‘Toscana’ is an ornamental everbearing strawberry highly valued for its abundant and continuous deep pink bloom. This variety is distinguished by its compact and slightly trailing habit, making it ideal for pots, planters, hanging baskets, and decorative edible arrangements. Its dark green deciduous foliage highlights the colorful flowers that appear throughout the season and attract pollinating insects. The red fruits produced are edible and decorative, adding an extra element of interest without being the plant's main purpose. Well-suited to Quebec's climatic conditions, ‘Toscana’ prefers a sunny exposure and rich, loose, well-drained soil. This cultivar is an excellent choice for those primarily seeking a durable, easy-to-grow, and visually striking flowering plant.
