My garden in the woods

We already found these flowers in February and early March.



The wild strawberries are now quite ready for an excellent coulis (to be preferred against being consumed fresh to avoid any risk of echinococcosis transmitted by foxes).

 

The Fragaria vesca (or small strawberry in Latin), commonly called wild strawberry, is a perennial herbaceous plant in the rose family that grows naturally throughout much of the Northern Hemisphere, and that produces edible fruits strongly flavored.

With a botanical point of view, the fruit is in fact an accessory fruit.

Let’s pick some wild strawberries

Sun is back after three days of long awaited rain.
Is climate changing? I think so, but in any case I never saw any wild strawberry flowers in January.
