Fragaria × ananassa ‘Yellow Wonder’ is an original and decorative everbearing strawberry plant, appreciated for its pale yellow fruits when ripe and its distinctive character in the garden. This variety forms a compact clump with a natural habit, ideal for vegetable gardens, fruit beds, and container growing. Its deciduous bright green foliage accompanies a discreet but regular white flowering, followed by continuous production. The light-colored fruits stand out for their sweet, very sugary, and finely aromatic flesh, often described as reminiscent of wild strawberries, with low acidity. Well adapted to Quebec's climatic conditions, ‘Yellow Wonder’ is hardy and easy to grow, while offering excellent ecological and gustatory value. It prefers a sunny exposure and rich, loose, well-drained soil, making it an ideal choice for curious gardeners looking for a different and refined fruit variety.
