Fragaria chiloensis

Coastal, or beach strawberry is naturally found all along the coastal regions of the Pacific NW, often seen around dunes and grasslands adjacent to the beach. In Metro area gardens coastal strawberry has proven to be a great option for an easy-to-grow, hardy groundcover with shiny tough evergreen leaves, white flowers in spring and summer that attract and support pollinators, and the ability to quickly form lush mats of greenery.  Despite being a parent of modern cultivated strawberries, you may rarely see the very small fruits on this native in a garden setting. If you do, the seedy fruit is enjoyed by birds and small mammals considerably more than by people!

  • Plant type/canopy layer: evergreen, perennial, herbaceous plant
  • Size at maturity: 1-10” tall, 3-5” clumps with runners that will continuously spread 
  • Light requirements: full sun to partial shade
  • Moisture requirements: dry to moist soil
  • Bloom time: depending on location, blooms can be seen in most any month - though in Portland metro area the are most commonly seen April - July 
  • Growth rate/ease: moderate to fast growth rate, very easy to grow, spreads by runners
  • Wildlife support: flowers attract and provide nectar to adult butterflies, bees and other insect pollinators; fruits are eaten by birds and small mammals; overall plant attracts and supports beneficial and other pest eating insects and is a caterpillar host plant and larval food source for native butterflies and moths such as a Two-banded Checkered-skipper and the Alfalfa Lopper Moth
  • Native habitat/range: found in coastal communities throughout the Pacific Northwest. Portland Plant List - no.  
  • Special features & uses: groundcover; evergreen; drought-tolerant; deer resistant; edible (though not particularly delicious); medicinally it has been used as an antiseptic and astringent, to help regulate the menstrual cycle, to boost lactation and treat toothaches and burns; landscape uses include meadowscapes, pollinator gardens, rock gardens, erosion-control and green roofs; it is also a dynamic accumulator, meaning it can gather minerals or nutrients from the soil and store them in its leaves where they become more available to use as a fertilizer or to improve mulch

Gardening with Coastal Strawberry: Add coastal strawberries to fill in open dry areas in full sun or part sun locations where you are looking to create an evergreen carpet below shrubs or trees, along garden edges or in rock gardens. Coastal strawberries prefer sandy or loose soils and are very hardy and exceptionally drought-tolerant. They can be left to fend for themselves, but for faster growth, consider adding compost and extra water to help them take off.  Coastal strawberries will spread vigorously by runners. Initial plantings every foot or so will spread to create a full covered mat of greenery within a couple of growing seasons.  Easy to propagate in early spring by separating new plants from the runners and transplanting.

Inviting layout for kids and very informative!
Format: Flexibound
My 9 year old son loves this book! He is a huge fan of the Lonely Planet books. We have their books on Countries and Cities which he loves and is always pulling off the shelf to read but he loves these new City Trails books even more. If you are familiar with their other kid books this series is very similar. The information is presented in bite size chunks that are about a paragraph long. His favorite part was the the thematic trails which provide the information on a few pages under a different theme throughout the city. He loves the the real pictures of the city and the fun graphics, like cartoon people and information put in a phone. My son loves trivia and fun facts so this book is perfect for him. He loved telling me lots of things I had never heard of before. This was an informational book for him that gave him a lot of great information about the country and culture and would be an excellent choice to prepare for a trip. I remain very impressed with how engaging Lonely Planet makes information inviting to kids. I will definitely be buying him more books in this series.

Easy and exciting
Format: Paperback
3.5⭐️ I didn't know that this book was the third part of the Campus Police series. But it reads well as a stand-alone book. The first two books are about the other two couples who also appear here. This time, the story revolves around Cappy, who is back after a few weeks away and her grandfather's funeral, and Jazz, a librarian with a special flair for decorating her office. In this short time, a lot has changed in Cappy's personal life, and she has to get used to it all again. Brian, a talented football player who was forced to completely change his life after a traffic accident, is found dead. Initially, it is classified as suicide, but Jazz insists on a more thorough investigation of the case, as she is convinced that Brian was looking forward to the future despite adverse circumstances. Cappy is assigned to determine whether it was a crime. The interviews Cappy conducted to uncover all the circumstances and background information were interesting. However, I found it a little strange that a civilian was allowed to attend these interviews. Jazz and Cappy have mutual friends who are all professionally involved with the campus. The banter between them is amusing, and the romance between Cappy and Jazz is nice and sweet. An easy-to-read book with amusing and likable characters, good and witty dialogue, and some suspense.

Very enjoyable read.
Format: Kindle
I believe this is the third installment of the ‘ University Police Series’ and the best part of a series like this is the reader gets to meet up with the cast of characters from Ms Walsh’s first two books. The first book introduced us to a group of professors, four to be exact and in each book we get to read about romance and crime.. The University Campus Police are the ones these professor’s turn to when there is unfortunately a murder on campus. This time it’s Professor Jazz Harald that seeks the help of the police when one of the students she knows has decided to end his own life. Jazz doesn’t believe the police reports so she reaches out to the campus police, Officer Cappy Flannery. Cappy has read the report herself, even visited the apartment where the young student lived. She agrees with the report but she also reluctantly agrees with Jazz the case should be investigated. If you have read the first two books then you’re in for a treat, if you hadn’t read the first two books you might find yourself lost because Walsh brings in everyone or so it seems from the two stories. It might be a good idea to read the first two. Very enjoyable read. ARC via NetGalley/ Bold Stroke Books

Good book
Format: Kindle
This is the third book in the series. In this installment, Cappy investigates the suicide of the star football player. Jazz, the librarian and a member of Libby's friend group, does not believe it was a suicide and is assisting Cappy with the investigation. I didn't enjoy this book as much as the first two; the pace was slow at the beginning, but it improved towards the end. Although this book can be read as a standalone, I recommend reading the series in order. Overall, I would still recommend this book. I received an arc

Wonderful read.
Format: Kindle
What a wonderful story. Nora and Fallon were meant to be together, although it took them forever to figure it out. The MC’s were well developed and described, and the scenery was detailed beautifully. This is the first book I’ve read by this author, but it certainly won’t be the last. Well done. I received an ARC from NetGalley, and am leaving this review voluntarily.
