Strawberry Tree

Arbutus unedo

A broadleafed evergreen distant relative of the madrone. It grows slowly to 15ft., or 6-8ft. grown as a bush, and its trunk becomes twisted and gnarled with age (as do we all)! It is named for the round, mealy yet edible strawberry-colored fruits that ripen in the fall and winter. It will brighten the landscape with both blossoms and fruits on display simultaneously. Self fertile. One gallon plant.
