fragaria
''Fragaria'' 〔''Sunset Western Garden Book,'' 1995:606–607〕 is a genus of flowering plants in the rose family, Rosaceae, commonly known as strawberries for their edible fruits. There are more than 20 described species and many hybrids and cultivars. The most common strawberries grown commercially are cultivars of the garden strawberry, a hybrid known as ''Fragaria'' × ''ananassa''. Strawberries have a taste that varies by cultivar, and ranges from quite sweet to rather tart. Strawberries are an important commercial fruit crop, widely grown in all temperate regions of the world.
==Description==
Strawberries are not true berries.〔Esau, K. 1977. ''Anatomy of seed plants''. John Wiley and Sons, New York.〕 The fleshy and edible part of the fruit is a receptacle, and the parts that are sometimes mistakenly called "seeds" are achenes.〔〔E-Flora BC: Electronic Atlas of the Plants of British Columbia: (''Fragaria virginiana'' ).〕
Although it is commonly thought that strawberries get their name from straw being used as a mulch in cultivating the plants, the etymology of the word is uncertain.
