F. Virginiana, the Virginia or Scarlet strawberry is our most common wild strawberry. It is found from the Arctic circle to Florida, and extends northward to Ore- gon and Washington Territory. Occurring in a great variety of localities, several of its forms have been described as species. This and F. Grandiflora are the parents of the strawberries generally cultivated. They differ from the Alpine species in having their seeds in a cavity more or less deep. The other species which have been desc...ribed as distinct are of no importance to the cultivator. The strawberry was apparently known to the Romans only in its wild state, for none of their writers have men- tioned it as among cultivated fruits. It is first mentioned as having been cultivated in England during the reign of Eichard III, in 1483. With the exception of a variety of Wood strawberry raised in France about 1 660, no im- proved variety of the strawberry was known until late in the last century, after the introduction of the Large- flowered and the Virginia strawberries.
