The Strawberry Tree (Arbutus) defies seasons and expectations in equal measure.
While others rest for winter, the Arbutus performs an enchanting paradox—displaying delicate bell-shaped blooms alongside crimson fruits on the same branches. This Mediterranean beauty offers year-round intrigue with its cinnamon-red bark that peels away to reveal smooth, jade-green skin beneath.
The ruby-red fruits arrive like ornaments, transforming from golden yellow to deep scarlet as they ripen. Though they resemble strawberries in appearance, their honeyed, slightly tart flavor tells an entirely different story—one best discovered fresh from the branch or transformed into exceptional preserves and spirits.
