In Amerlcn , during U1C early colon- 1111 days , the wild strawberries of the field were abundllnt and furnished a much prized article of diet. These wild plnnts were transplanted to the gllrden and produced f.rult of In- creo.sed size. The garden strawberry Is , there fore , Iln Amerlclln product.
