Fragaria 'Lipstick'
(Alpine Strawberry) Zone 5-9 Height 6-8 inches

This rose-red selection originated from the Netherlands. A
much showier, darker flower than well known 'Pink Panda'®. This low growing plant is good
used as ground cover. Prefers well drained soil. May be as hardy as Zone 3 with a
winter mulch. Bright green leaves, flowering begins in the spring and intermittently
through the growing season . |
A few small
strawberries are produced When planted with a large amount of compost has been added
growth may become rampant. As with most non evergreen perennials cut back
spent foliage in early spring to a one inch or less, then fertilize lightly |
