My favorite fruit is strawberries. What can you tell me about them?

The strawberry is a garden fruit that is a widely grown hybrid species of the genus "Fragaria". Which is collectively known as the strawberries.

Oh that is so interesting. They taste so good. I like strawberry shortcake as well.

I do too! The garden strawberry was actually first bred in Brittany, France in 1714. It was a cross of "Fragaria virginiana" from eastern North America and "Fragaria chiloensis" which was brought from Chile.

No kidding, I didn't realize it has been around for over 300 years! Crazy to think how many people have been enjoying them.

Oh yes, it is loved all over the world. The fruit is widely loved for its characteristic aroma, its beautiful red color and juicy texture!
