- Species and varieties: The white milk alpine strawberry (Fragaria vesca) is a unique variety of the alpine strawberry. Unlike the common red strawberries, this variety produces small, white berries with a distinctively sweet and aromatic flavor. It is known for its creamy texture and is often referred to as 'white soul' or 'pineapple crush' due to its subtle pineapple-like taste.
- Hybrid or heirloom: The white milk alpine strawberry is typically an heirloom variety. Heirloom seeds are open-pollinated and have been passed down through generations, preserving their unique characteristics and flavors. This variety is prized for its historical significance and consistent quality.
- Pruning and training: Pruning is minimal for alpine strawberries. Remove any dead or damaged leaves to promote healthy growth. These plants do not produce runners like other strawberry varieties, making them easier to manage in small spaces or containers.
- Fertilization needs: Alpine strawberries benefit from a balanced fertilizer applied in early spring and again after the first harvest. Organic compost or a slow-release fertilizer can provide the necessary nutrients. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to excessive leaf growth at the expense of fruit production.
- Hardiness zones: White milk alpine strawberries are suitable for USDA hardiness zones 5-9. They can tolerate a range of temperatures but thrive best in cooler climates.
- Climate requirements: These strawberries prefer a temperate climate with well-drained soil. They require full sun to partial shade and benefit from consistent moisture. Mulching can help retain soil moisture and keep the roots cool.
