| (=‘Franor’) An attractive ornamental strawberry, featuring flowers of deep rose-pink, near to red. Plants form a mound of green leaves, with flowers nestled on top in spring, and continuing on and off through the summer and fall. Small bright red strawberries are an added bonus, and tasty too. Use this as a spreading groundcover among shrubs, or trailing out of pots, baskets and window boxes. This is a versatile perennial with a multitude of uses in the garden. A Blooms of Bressingham introduction. USPP#12169: unlicensed propagation prohibited. Registered with COPF.
