Can sunlight damage Strawberry? How to protect Strawberry from the sun and heat damage?
Feedback
The few Perennial Flowering Plants that don't like excessive heat in warm climates might react poorly to too much sun if they have heat damage. These plants may wilt or dry out from too much sun and may also develop growth issues if they're regularly in the sun during the most intense heat of the day. Some plants don't need protection from the light afternoon sun, but those that are harmed by intense afternoon exposure should be provided some shade in warmer climates. Gardeners could give these plants plenty of shade by planting them in spots that don't receive direct heat during the afternoon, like under trees or behind bushes.

The strawberry (*Fragaria ananassa*) is an edible plant species. Each plant produces a quart of strawberries during the growing season. The fruit becomes ripe during the early spring and summer months. The strawberry was first cultivated during the middle of the eighteenth century in France. It is a hybrid between a North American strawberry (*F. Virginiana*) and a Chilean strawberry (*F. Chiloensis*).
Garden Use
Strawberry is an herbaceous perennial often grown in homes. The plant adapts to a wide range of container sizes. Its fruit is not only rich in vitamin C but also diverse in variety. With sufficient sunlight, moisture, and maintenance, you can harvest pesticide-free, juicy fruit from your own garden.
