Fragaria × Comarum hybrids

There are several commercially important hybrids between Fragaria and Comarum species in existence.

A name for Fragaria × Comarum is available as × Comagaria Büscher & G.H.

The first-generation hybrids have been recorded as heptaploid, i.e. with seven sets of chromosomes; four sets of chromosomes came from their octoploid strawberry parent, and three from their hexaploid Comarum parent.

[1] All commercial cultivars resemble strawberries more closely than they do Comarum.

They are all vigorous, and produce runners profusely.
