During the 1980s more than 2,000 clones of Fragaria chiloensis, the beach strawberry, were collected from 123 coastal sites in British Columbia.

Along the West Coast and down the continental rim into South America, the native species is F. chiloensis, or beach strawberry.

In his work with strawberries, he showed other breeders the value of the beach strawberry (Fragaria chiloensis) as a source of germplasm conveying vigor, productivity, flavor, and disease resistance.

About the beach strawberry, Frézier wrote: "They there cultivate entire fields of a type of strawberry differing from ours by their rounder leaves, being fleshier and having strong runners."

Beach strawberries, self heal, sea pink and California poppies are already attracting hummingbirds, bees and endangered species such as Bay Checkerspot and San Bruno Elfin butterflies.

Fragaria chiloensis, the beach strawberry, Chilean strawberry, or coastal strawberry, is one of two species of strawberry that were hybridized to create the modern garden strawberry (F. x ananassa).

According to the PBN, several U.S. strawberry breeders are evaluating selections of the native strawberries, Fragaria virginiana (meadow or eastern strawberry) and Fragaria chiloensis (Pacific beach strawberry).

It provides one of the last remaining habitats within the city for a number of native plants, including the endangered Franciscan wallflower and dune tansy, and also bush lupin, beach strawberry, bush monkey flower, and coyote bush.

Amédée-François Frézier (1682 - October 26, 1773) was a French military engineer, mathematician, spy, and explorer who is best remembered for bringing back five specimens of Fragaria chiloensis, the beach strawberry, from an assignment in South America, thus introducing this New World fruit to the Old.

Stabilized dunes support shore pine over salal, rhododendron, and evergreen blueberry, with dune wildrye, Chilean strawberry, and dune bentgrass.

Then in 1712, a French engineer brought another species, the Chilean strawberry, back from a voyage to South America; his name, incredibly enough, was Frezier, pronounced like "fraisier," which means "strawberry plant."

Fragaria chiloensis, the beach strawberry, Chilean strawberry, or coastal strawberry, is one of two species of strawberry that were hybridized to create the modern garden strawberry (F. x ananassa).

It was first noted by a French gardener around the mid 18th century that when F. moschata and F. virginiana were planted in between rows of F. chiloensis, the Chilean strawberry would bear abundant and unusually large fruits.

In British Columbia, coastal strawberry, as its name reveals, grows along the entire coast.

Coastal strawberry is an ideal evergreen ground cover for sunny, but not sun-baked sites.

Coastal strawberry is one of the parents of our modern cultivated strawberry.

Coastal strawberries are easily grown in the garden from offsets or daughter plants found at the end of the horizontal runners.

Like you would with other wild strawberries, try raising coastal strawberry from seed sown in the fall over a sand-humus mixture.

In North America you will find coastal strawberry hugging the coastline from Alaska to California.

Coastal Strawberry and Pacific Silverweed are common along the coast due to their reproductive advantages and salt tolerance.

Coastal Strawberry (Fragaria chiloensis)

In April, kinnikinnik and hairy manzanita produce their pink bells then evergreen huckleberry, salal and coastal strawberry take over through May.

Fragaria chiloensis, the beach strawberry, Chilean strawberry, or coastal strawberry, is one of two species of strawberry that were hybridized to create the modern garden strawberry (F. x ananassa).

Several kinds of fruit grow in open spaces in these forests, such as beach strawberry (Fragaria chiloensis var.

Coastal Strawberry (Fragaria chiloensis)

There had been failed attempts to cultivate fragaria chiloensis in Anjou, Touraine, and the lower-Loire areas.

Only two groups of Fragaria virginiana Miller (Staudt) and Fragaria chiloensis (L.)

In his work with strawberries, he showed other breeders the value of the beach strawberry (Fragaria chiloensis) as a source of germplasm conveying vigor, productivity, flavor, and disease resistance.

The New World species of strawberry, Fragaria chiloensis, which had been introduced into France by Amédée-François Frézier (1682-1773), flourished in the marine climate of Plougastel.

Key words: strawberry, Fragaria chiloensis, ssp. chiloensis, ssp. pacifica, ssp. lucida, RAPD, variation, germplasm, Canada, United States, Chile.

Despatched in 1712 to assess the quality of the Spanish army’s defensive fortifications in Chile, he returned with a new variety of strawberry (now called Fragaria chiloensis) which had been cultivated for many years by the Chilean Indians.

The larvae feed on Artemisia (including Artemisia princeps), Cryptomeria japonica, Elaeagnus, Fragaria chiloensis, Prunus mume, Prunus serotina, Punica granatum and Rubus species (including Rubus microphyllus).

The exact process of hybridization and speciation which resulted in the octoploid species is still unknown, but it appears that the genome compositions of both Fragaria chiloensis and Fragaria virginiana (and by extension the cultivated octoploid strawberry as well) are identical.

To improve the intraspecific classification of Fragaria chiloensis (L.) Duchesne, 35 plants including 5 North American ssp. lucida, 15 North American ssp. pacifica, and 15 South American ssp. chiloensis were analysed using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPDs).
