Garden Strawberry (Fragaria × Ananassa)

The garden strawberry was produced by crossing two species of strawberry during the end of the 18th century. It replaced the formerly grown woodland strawberry. Strawberries have trifoliate, serrate leaves and can be propagated by runners. Their flowers consist of epicalyx and calyx, usually pentamerous white or pink corolla, many stamens and many carpels on a raised receptacle. The receptacle turns fleshy and red, while the miniature pollinated carpels turn to achenes, creating the aggregate fruit.
