My alpine strawberries grow all around the garden as a result of a simple
method of sowing them: if a berry has been half eaten by a bird or slug,
or is going moldy, I pick it and toss it. When I bought the seeds about
25 years ago, I read that the plants could be dug up and the crowns
pulled apart, just like primroses. I intended to do that, but tossing
berries is so much easier that I have never divided them. The clumps are
productive for a number of years and then start to look unhealthy. I
pull them out at that point.
