Wild Strawberry (Fragaria virginiana)

---

In bloom April 28 - June 17. Three leaflets in each compound leaf and pretty white flowers with 5 petals and 5 sepals characterize this plant. It is the same as the cultivated strawberry and makes delicious fruits. You won't see it on the natural area trails, but it does grow along the edge of wooded areas and in campus meadows.
