A "Real Strawberry" to plant Strawberries?

[klt332]

Why can't I use a real strawberry to plant strawberries. I mean it has seeds on it .. I planted apple seeds from an apple I ate- and they grew. Has ANYONE ever gotten strawberries from the actual strawberry itself?

actually, after composting a batch of leftover assorted strawberry pieces from my kiddos they began to grow.  i recently removed them from my composting section of my garden and planted them in a container and they are doing fantastic.  no fruit yet but they appear to be close...

Thank you.

I've never done but would love to try. Maybe the seeds need to dry out first?

MY husband threw some strawberries in the grass. Plants came up
