Plant of the Day

Wednesday 28 December 2022

A small, spreading, evergreen tree Arbutus unedo (strawberry tree, Dalmatian strawberry, Killarney strawberry tree) thrives in a sunny, sheltered location. The urn-shaped, white flowers often appear as the strawberry-like fruits, from the previous years flowers, ripen. The multiple trunks have flaking red-brown bark.

New garden install in Rossmoor. Project includes new concrete walkways featuring a Mc Near brick boarder and new front porch. Even though this is a low water garden, featuring a Strawberry tree, the garden will be very Nantucket Cottage style with lots of roses ( also drought tolerant!) that fit the style of home! Sod area was reduced form additional plantings plantings but the garden still needed green space. We used Marathon lI with low flow irrigation to properly water the sod in this family friendly neighborhood. #alfordsgardens #landscapedesign #nantucketstyle #cottage #gardenlove #hardscapedesign #rosegarden#rossmoor #oc #mcnearbrick #strawberrytree #sod #icebergroses #gardendesign #romanticgarden #gardeninspired #gardendesigner #southlandsodfarm (at Alford's English Gardens) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdYeSenLgC6/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Plant of the Day

Thursday 20 June 2019

The summer rain was causing the wonderful smooth cinnamon-brown bark of Arbutus menziesii (madrona, strawberry tree) to shine. This medium-sized tree has been crown lifted by removing the lower branches covered in evergreen foliage so allowing the bark to be admired and an understorey of herbaceous plants to develop. This tree was at the beautiful Inner Temple Gardens, London, which opens to the public in the afternoons.

It's KOUMARA time!  See more on my courses at jointheflow.net ...discover my books at bit.ly/elefteria ...and read more about that. Yes, these are the ripe fruits of Arbutus unedo, known as "koumara" in Greek. Yummy!!  Arbutus unedo's fruits have a high content of sugars (40%), and antioxidant vitamins such as vitamin C, beta-carotene, niacin, tocopherols, and organic acids that are precursors to omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids (nearly 9%).  They are edible fresh, but that is an uncommon consumption, especially because the mature fruit tends to bruise very easily, making transportation difficult. They are used mostly for jam, marmalades, yogurt and alcoholic beverages, such as the Portuguese medronho, a type of strong brandy.  Many regions of Albania prepare the traditional drink rakia from the fruits of the plant (mare or kocimare in Albanian), hence comes the name of the drink "raki kocimareje".  Hey, make a crumble cake too!

#arbutusunedo #strawberrytree The fruits are small, spherical and with a rough texture. They ripen to a deep red and from a distance resemble strawberries, hence the name. (at Hampstead Garden Suburb) https://www.instagram.com/p/CF_04zSA6E8/?igshid=14nbpt2k55w04
