Tomatillo blossom

We have some blossoms in our garden. The tomatillos were the first to blossom, and now the alpine strawberries have blooms and tiny fruit.

i’m so jealous of your alpine strawberries! i really want to grow them, but can’t find them anywhere; did you start your from seed?

i ate the first ozark berry from my garden yesterday and it was good, but i was still a little disappointed that it wasn’t an alpine!

Thanks! Michelle, I found our alpine strawberry plants at a local nursery here in Northern VA. We have six plants this year and hope to add more next year. I love the sweet flavor of alpines!
