Strawberry Tree Shrub (Arbutus unedo)

Among the most characteristic plants of the Mediterranean landscape, Strawberry Tree (Koumaria) is an extremely durable evergreen plant, found both as a shrub and as a small tree. It has glossy green leaves, flowers whitish or whitish-pink, while the spherical shaped fruits that are edible, add special elegance to Strawberry Tree, remaining for a long time in the plant, almost a year, with colors initially yellow and in the stage of ripening red. It is easily cultivated on well-drained and acid-reactive soil and is essentially immune to pests and diseases, with the exception of aphids sometimes. Strawberry Tree is an important plant that is used both for garden or pots, and on a larger scale, used in gardening and landscape architecture.

► It is offered at a price determined by the particular characteristics of the plant, such as the size of the pot, its height, age and shape. Large shrubs are also available for sale (and planting) upon prior arrangement. In any case, the price or prices listed are indicative.
