You can buy average strawberries during the season for around 400-500 yen for one package. The higher quality ones will be over 1000 yen, however. Some fruit stands will sell one strawberry for 300 yen or 2 for 500! Just one berry!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The strawberry season is actually winter in Japan and it is very very difficult to find any out of season, so it&#8217;s better to enjoy them as much as you can during the season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I tried growing some in a pot last summer but didn&#8217;t really have much luck. I think I got 2-3 strawberries total. The rest were eaten by bugs. I think I&#8217;ll stick to flowers in my garden!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do you like strawberries?
