Strawberries and large strawberries are cultivars of the Garden Strawberry, a plant of the family of the Rosaceae and a genus of the Fragaria, which are found all over the world. Strawberries and large strawberries are among the most appreciated fruits and evoke the beginning of spring. There are more than 1.000 large strawberry known varieties around the world.

The strawberry as we know it was introduced in Europe by the first Virgina (US) settler. In Spain, the province of Huelva is the most specialized region in the growth of strawberries.

Nowadays, the most commercialized species are intensive growth strawberries, which are grown in greenhouses and can be found all over the world.

Some of them are conical, others are almost round, going from a gleaming red to an orange red, with a scented, juicy pulp that melts in the mouth under a minimum pressure. Their taste varies from sharp to very sweet. The most characteristic element of these fruits is their intense smell, capable of impregnating the air with their penetrating perfume within ten meter radius.
