Pineberry is a white strawberry cultivar with red seeds and a pineapple-like flavor. [1] [2]
Pineberry is a hybrid cross from Fragaria chiloensis and Fragaria virginiana . [1] A pineberry is smaller than a common strawberry, measuring between 15 and 23 mm (0.6 and 0.9 in). When ripe, it is almost completely white, but with red achenes (the seeds). The plant is disease-resistant, and highly priced, although not profitable due to small-scale farming, small berry size and low yield. [2] [3] Pineberries are harvested in the spring and summer. First identified in South America around 2002, pineberries are cultivated in Belgium and exported from the Netherlands. [2] [3]
The berry was dubbed "pineberry" for the UK market where it became available in 2010 to reflect its pineapple-like flavor, while still being a strawberry. [4] Pineberries were first sold commercially in the United States in 2012, [1] [5] and were marketed to restaurants, bakeries and wholesale markets in Europe and Dubai. [3]
A berry is a small, pulpy, and often edible fruit. Typically, berries are juicy, rounded, brightly colored, sweet, sour or tart, and do not have a stone or pit, although many pips or seeds may be present. Common examples of berries in the culinary sense are strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, blackberries, red currants, white currants and blackcurrants. In Britain, soft fruit is a horticultural term for such fruits.

The Strasberry or Fragaria × ananassa 'Mieze Schindler' is a variety of the garden strawberry, with a raspberry-like appearance, originally developed by the German breeder Otto Schindler in 1925. It is similarly soft textured, with characteristics that are similar to raspberries, such as being a deeper red, being rounder and having a bumpy exterior. They are also smaller than an average garden strawberry and have deeper achenes. Unlike other garden strawberry varieties, 'Mieze Schindler' produces no fertile pollen and will need a pollinator. Despite its much-valued flavor, the variety was threatened by extinction, but plants survived in amateur gardens in the former German Democratic Republic until they were reintroduced as a commercial variety by a Dutch farmer in the twenty-first century. Since 2013 a hybrid, self-pollinating version of this strawberry has been marketed under the new trade name Framberry.
