Strawberry 'Yambu'

FamilyRosaceae

Fragaria × ananassa ‘Yambu’ is a perpetual ornamental and fruiting strawberry plant, prized for its abundant deep pink blossoms and highly decorative appearance. This variety forms a compact clump with a harmonious habit, ideal for pots, planters, window boxes, and decorative edible arrangements. Its deciduous dark green foliage highlights the colorful flowers that bloom throughout the season, attracting pollinating insects. The fruits that follow add to the plant's appeal without being its primary purpose, offering a moderate harvest suitable for small spaces. Well-suited to Quebec's climatic conditions, ‘Yambu’ prefers a sunny exposure and rich, loose, well-drained soil. This cultivar is particularly sought after for combining long-lasting flowering, ease of cultivation, and remarkable garden aesthetics.
