| Ah, flowers and fruit in December! What a beautiful sight. Are the strawberries alpines? I grow the little alpine mignonettes but don't have fruit now. What variety are yours? I walked down the garden path today and the only bloom I saw was a tiny frozen pink miniature rose. It was cold here today, in the 20s, and I'm ready for Spring now, lol! Eden Eden |

| Glad everyone enjoyed the pics as much as I enjoyed taking them! The strawberries are first-year from seed. Seed from Pinetree labeled simply "Alpine Strawberries." Every year I start another packet and every year they are a delight. They are So Easy!! These particular ones tasted something like sweet red mush but hey, I'll take them in December. LOL Martie |
