STRAWBERRY TREE --Arbutus unedo 'Compacta'-- Gasteria A great all around organicOne of the coolest looking fruit trees! Fruit transitions through a range of fiery yellow orange red colors as it ripens. Fruits have a banana like consistency, and are sweet and good eaten raw or as preserves, syrup, or fermented and distilled. High in antioxidants, loved by bees and birds, nice as a wind barrier, and fire resistant. Produces a rare, highly esteemed honey in Sardinia. Grows up to 30'.
