Product Description
Experience the rich aroma and exquisite sweetness of Mara Des Bois Strawberries, a French-bred, ever-bearing variety celebrated for its exceptional fragrance and flavor—a delicate blend of wild strawberry and traditional garden strawberry.
These small-to-medium-sized berries are juicy, deeply red, and full of old-world sweetness. Unlike most everbearers, Mara Des Bois produces fruit continuously from late spring through fall, providing a steady supply of premium-quality berries for fresh eating, desserts, and jams.
Cold-hardy and disease-resistant, this variety thrives in USDA Zones 4–8 and performs beautifully in garden beds, containers, or hanging baskets. Its compact size and steady yield make it ideal for home gardeners and urban growers who want luxury flavor with minimal care.
