How Are Strawberry Seeds Dispersed?

Growing Strawberries

Strawberries tend to reproduce asexually, which means that the seeds aren't needed. The plants send out runners and spread that way. But the seeds are still viable and can be used to grow strawberries.

Naturally Spreading Seeds

Birds are a great way for strawberry seeds to spread. They eat the seeds while they are stealing berries and then excrete them as they fly over different areas. This will ensure that the strawberries continue to be produced, but it doesn't help if you want to plant your strawberry plants in a certain location.

Human Interference

You can harvest the seeds and plant them in a suitable spot for a more cultivated strawberry garden.This, and maintaining the naturally spreading existing plants, is the method most gardeners use.
