Alpine strawberry

At the beginning of summer, I played music at the City Farm Plant Sale, and to thank me they gave me a mammoth basil plant and an alpine strawberry plant. I've had the strawberry plant long enough that the berries are starting to ripen, so a couple of times a week I get to pick and devour a tiny, flavor-packed strawberry.

I hear those are incredibly tasty.

I didn't get to taste but 1 or 2 of my (regular) strawberries this year, as the patch perversly decided to ripen while I was out of town. Somebody ate my strawberries, but it wasn't me. Bah.
