Baron Solemacher' is a German heirloom alpine strawberry bred from the woodland strawberries that have been grown in home gardens since the 12th century. It is an early fruiting type, producing dainty clusters of deep red, sweet and juicy berries, which can be up to 25 mm in diameter, weighing 3 to 5 g. The fruit is incredibly sweet and aromatic, growing in abundance on compact, bushy plants. It is a perfect choice for growing in containers or hanging baskets. Alpine strawberries can grow in full sun, although in very hot areas, they do better in dappled shade. Like other strawberries, they do best in a rich, fertile, well-drained soil. The plants are hardy and unlike other strawberries, they do not send out runners. Instead they grow as a leafy mound to 30 cm in height. Plants bear fruit the first season after planting. Feed and water regularly and they will continue to fruit for 2 to 4 years, after that they can be rejuvenated by division. Alpine strawberries are best grown in temperate or cooler subtropical areas.
