Plant Type

Arbutus unedo, commonly known as strawberry tree, also called madrone, is an evergreen shrub or small tree in the family Ericaceae, native to the Mediterranean Basin and Western Europe.
The taste of Arbutus unedo (Strawberry Tree) fruit is often described as mildly sweet, subtly tart, and somewhat bland when raw, with a grainy or mealy texture from its tiny seeds, reminiscent of a soft pear, fig, or guava, but not truly like a strawberry. Fully ripe fruits offer a better, sweeter flavor, while unripe ones can be bitter; they're best used in jams, liqueurs, or syrups for their unique, subtle notes rather than eaten fresh in large quantities.
