Green strawberry

Description:

Fragaria viridis is a species of strawberry native to Europe and central Asia. It has extremely small berries with fine flavour. They have surprisingly little of the usual strawberry aroma, but a refreshing acidity, and sometimes ripen without becoming red. When they are plucked from the plant, the calyx will usually adhere and they will detach with a noticeable cracking sound. The pictured plants were spotted growing in the crevasses of a stone wall, in Tzoumerka mountains, Greece.
