wild strawberry
Small forest fruit
Wild strawberry is a small woodland plant bearing tiny red fruits, the ancestor of cultivated strawberries.
The berries are much smaller than commercial varieties but intensely flavored and aromatic.
They grow low to the ground in meadows, forest edges, and clearings across temperate regions: We found wild strawberries along the hiking trail.
