Variety traits
Fragaria vesca L.
The wild strawberry scape is a leafless, branched stem 5–25 cm high, bearing a corymbose inflorescence. Its morphological parameters determine the ease of berry harvesting and agrotechnical maintenance requirements.
In the reference 3 varieties crop Wild strawberry, where this is mentioned in the description.
Wild strawberry scapes develop from apical or axillary buds of the crown and reach a height of 5 to 25 cm, remaining level with or slightly exceeding the basal leaves. In terms of habit, they are typically classified as spreading or compact, which affects harvest accessibility.
In intensive cultivation, scapes are thinned on young plants to promote vegetative growth. An important varietal trait is remontancy, which is diagnosed by the presence of scapes in late summer and early autumn, as well as the spatial arrangement of the inflorescences relative to the foliage.
