Spies, royalty and the origin of strawberries
It’s Strawberry season, why not learn about their surprising history? It’s an incredibly short history. The first strawberry as we know it was born in France in 1766, with love from Chile and the help of a spy. In fact, this video is an homage to the spy, Amédée François Frézier. And the beautiful drawings he made.
I sourced much from:
https://fruit.umn.edu/spy-botanist-strawberry
and other web sources and the book “A Voyage to the South-Sea and along the Coasts of Chili and Peru, in the Years 1712, 1713, and 1714“, by Amédée François Frézier.
Of course, this lucky hybridisation brought a cost. By doubling the already doubled number of genome copies. Find out more here:

#strawberries #harvest #2024
The garden strawberry (or simply strawberry; Fragaria × ananassa) is a widely grown hybrid species of the genus Fragaria, collectively known as the strawberries, which are cultivated worldwide for their fruit. The fruit is widely appreciated for its characteristic aroma, bright red color, juicy texture, and sweetness. It is consumed in large quantities, either fresh or in such prepared foods as jam, juice, pies, ice cream, milkshakes, and chocolates. Artificial strawberry flavorings and aromas are also widely used in products such as candy, soap, lip gloss, perfume, and many others.
The garden strawberry was first bred in Brittany, France, in the 1750s via a cross of Fragaria virginiana from eastern North America and Fragaria chiloensis, which was brought from Chile by Amédée-François Fré...

FRAISIER À GROS FRUITS : LA DÉCOUVERTE DE M. FRÉZIER AU CHILI QUI A BOULEVERSÉ LE MONDE DES FRAISES
Les fraisiers se plantent idéalement à l’automne ou au printemps. Ce sont des plantes faciles qui produisent des fruits délicieux. Mais savez-vous que toutes les variétés à gros fruits que l’on consomme aujourd’hui ont pour origine deux plantes américaines ? Et que c’est un certain Amédée François Frézier, nom prédestiné s’il en est, qui est à l’origine de la découverte et de l’introduction en Europe de l’un d’entre eux. C’est cette passionnante et intrigante histoire de coïncidences que vous racontent ici Patrick Mioulane et Roland Motte, les journalistes jardiniers de NewsJardinTV…

356-A Strawberry's Journey
The modern strawberry has a surprisingly dramatic story, involving a French spy in Chile, a perilous ocean voyage, and the unlikely meeting of two botanical expatriates. In this week's episode of the Futility Closet podcast we'll describe the improbable origin of one of the world's most popular fruits.
We'll also discuss the answers to some of our queries and puzzle over a radioactive engineer.
Intro:
Williston Fish bequeathed everything.
Philip Cohen invented an English contraction with seven apostrophes.

Amazing Strawberry Farming and Harvesting - Modern Farming of Strawberries
Let us introduce how strawberry grown. Its a crossed fruit between Fragaria virginiana from eastern North America and Fragaria chiloensis, which was brought from Chile by Amédée-François Frézier in 1714.
Now becoming more popular for Strawberry Crepe Flavor Cookies. This berry mostly cultivated in sunny season and in less sunny areas greenhouses used to grow it.

From a botanical point of view, the strawberry is not a berry but an aggregate accessory fruit, meaning that the fleshy part is derived not from the plant's ovaries but from the receptacle that holds the ovaries.[4] Each apparent "seed" (achene) on the outside of the fruit is actually one of the ovaries of the flower, with a seed inside it.
In 2019, world production of strawberries was nine million tons, led by China with 40% of the total.

Les fraisiers se plantent idéalement à l’automne ou au printemps. Ce sont des plantes faciles qui produisent des fruits délicieux. Mais savez-vous que toutes les variétés à gros fruits que l’on consomme aujourd’hui ont pour origine deux plantes américaines ? Et que c’est un certain Amédée François Frézier, nom prédestiné s’il en est, qui est à l’origine de la découverte et de l’introduction en Europe de l’un d’entre eux. C’est cette passionnante et intrigante histoire de coïncidences que vous racontent ici Patrick Mioulane et Roland Motte, les journalistes jardiniers de NewsJardinTV…
Si la fraise est dégustée depuis l’époque romaine, il s’agissait exclusivement de la fraise des bois (Fragaria vesca), jusqu’à ce que… En janvier 1712, le lieutenant et ingénieur cartographe Amédée François Frézier (né le 4 juillet 1682 à Chambéry et mort le 14 octobre 1773 à Brest) qui appartenait aux services secrets, fut envoyé par Louis XIV le long de la côte ouest de l’Amérique du sud, pour étudier clandestinement les fortifications espagnoles et portugaises du Chili et du Pérou.
Arrivé en juin 1712 à Conception au Chili, Amédée François Frézier féru de botanique et plus passionné par la nature que par les velléités guerrières du Roi Soleil (qui mourra en 1715), s’intéressa aux variétés locales de fraises cultivées près. Il décrivit la fraise du Chili en ces mots : « On y cultive des campagnes entières d'une espèce de fraisier différent du nôtre par les feuilles plus arrondies, plus charnues et fort velues. Ses fruits sont ordinairement gros comme une noix, et quelquefois comme un œuf de poule. Ils sont d'un rouge blanchâtre et un peu moins délicats au goût que nos fraises des bois. »
Embarquant quelques plants de Fragaria chiloensis qu’il entretenait grâce à une ration d'eau supplémentaire qui lui avait été accordée, Amédée François Frézier débarqua le 17 août 1714 à Marseille avec 5 plants survivants. L’un d’entre eux fut remis à Antoine-Laurent de Jussieu (1686-1758) au Jardin Royal à Paris (l’actuel Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle) qui les planta.
Mais les fraisiers du Chili ne fructifièrent qu’en présence d’un autre fraisier d’Amérique, le fraisier de Virginie (Fragaria virginiana). C’est du croisement de ces deux espèces que naquirent les ancêtres des variétés actuelles : Fragaria x ananassa. Il fut réalisé par le botaniste Antoine Nicolas. Duchesne (1747–1827) en rapport avec l’arôme de ses fruits qui rappelle l’ananas.
En 1740, la ville de Plougastel (limitrophe de Brest), déjà productrice de fraisiers des bois, devint le premier lieu de production de cette nouvelle espèce dite « fraise de Plougastel ». En 1875, 200 ha y étaient consacrés, 300 ha en 1882, 570 en 1912, et 1 100 ha en 1937, soit près du quart de la superficie de la presqu’île, si l’on inclut les cultures situées sur la commune de Loperhet. Jusqu’au début des années 1940, Plougastel fournissait le quart de la production française. Plougastel héberge depuis 1997, le « Musée de la Fraise et du Patrimoine. »
Et Patrick de terminer la rubrique avec cette citation de Sidonie Gabrielle Colette (1873-1954) dans « Les Vrilles de la vigne » en 1905 : « Une vague molle de parfum guide les pas vers la fraise sauvage, ronde comme une perle, qui mûrit ici en secret, noircit, tremble et tombe, dissoute lentement en suave pourriture framboisée dont l’arôme enivre. »

The modern strawberry has a surprisingly dramatic story, involving a French spy in Chile, a perilous ocean voyage, and the unlikely meeting of two botanical expatriates. In this week's episode of the Futility Closet podcast we'll describe the improbable origin of one of the world's most popular fruits.
We'll also discuss the answers to some of our queries and puzzle over a radioactive engineer.
Intro:
Williston Fish bequeathed everything.
Philip Cohen invented an English contraction with seven apostrophes.

Let us introduce how strawberry grown. Its a crossed fruit between Fragaria virginiana from eastern North America and Fragaria chiloensis, which was brought from Chile by Amédée-François Frézier in 1714.
Now becoming more popular for Strawberry Crepe Flavor Cookies. This berry mostly cultivated in sunny season and in less sunny areas greenhouses used to grow it.
