strawberry, charming and glamorous (Fragaria vesca)

It belongs to the family of Rosaceae, a perennial herb with thin stems that run on the ground and flowers white or pink in inflorescence corium. It grows in cool places. Small berries have emerged from crosses of different species while large fruit comes from indigenous species of America. Strawberries which are not, from a botanical point of view, berries but technically, are aggregate accessory fruits,  multiply   very very quick. Reports of strawberry are found in Pliny and Apicius, while the first cultivations began in 1300.
