Fragaria daltoniana is a wild Himalayan strawberry, a low perennial that spreads by runners, grown mainly for its cold-hardy genes rather than its fruit. It is grown in cool, temperate gardens and needs moist, well-drained soil with partial shade.
Fragaria daltoniana is a species of flowering plant in the family Rosaceae. It is a strawberry native to the Himalayas. Its fruit has a poor flavor, and is of no commercial value.
All strawberries have a base haploid count of 7 chromosomes. Fragaria daltoniana is diploid, having 2 pairs of these chromosomes for a total of 14 chromosomes. Fragaria daltoniana is one of the two Fragaria species containing a genome that is cold-resistant that can improve the growth and yielding of garden strawberry crops from abiotic stress.
