Pine Berry, a unique and delightful variety of strawberry, is a must-have for any berry enthusiast looking to add a novel twist to their garden or culinary experiences. Suited for USDA zones 4-8, Pine Berry plants produce small, white strawberries with red seeds and a remarkable pineapple-like flavor, hence their name. These charming berries are not only a conversation starter due to their unusual appearance and taste but are also perfect for those looking to diversify their homegrown fruit selection. Pine Berries are smaller than traditional strawberries and are best enjoyed fresh, right from the garden. They make an excellent addition to fruit salads, desserts, or as an unexpected garnish.

What makes Pine Berry unique?
Pine Berries boast a distinct flavor profile that’s reminiscent of a cross between strawberries and pineapple, setting them apart from your average berry. Their striking white color with red seeds also offers an aesthetic difference that can add intrigue to your garden and your plate.

Listing is for 3, 6, or 12 Pine Berry plants, sold bare-root. Each plant has been carefully uprooted with a healthy root system intact and is ready for transplanting upon arrival at your home.

Planting Instructions:
Select a sunny site with well-draining soil for your Pine Berry plants. If planting multiple, space them about 12 inches apart to allow for spreading. Dig a hole large enough to accommodate the roots without bending them. Set the plant in the hole with the crown at soil level. Backfill the hole, firm the soil to remove air pockets, and water generously. Pine Berries prefer consistent moisture, so water regularly, especially during dry spells.
