Extension fact sheet cited in Press Herald article on wild strawberries
The Portland Press Herald cited a University of Maine Cooperative Extension fact sheet in an article on wild strawberries. Wild strawberry, or Virginia strawberry, is a native, herbaceous (non-woody) plant that normally flowers in late May and early June and produces fruit soon after, according to the fact sheet. The small, flavorful berries can be difficult to find, and the article recommends enjoying them while they last.
