Yoors Flower parade, day 52

Yesterday early @Ingrid Tips and more me or I, when I'm on the road, recognize all the flowers.
My answer was that this is certainly not the case, but that I look for information if I find a flower interesting.
And as if I wanted to prove to myself that what I wrote was true, I fell with my nose in butter yesterday.

I was on a walk, and I saw, “woodwood shrimps.”
Jammie, I thought, because although woodwood pickled chisks are very small, they taste good.
They are less sweet than the well-known strawberries, and less juicy, but well...

I couldn't resist and snatched a couple of strawberries.
No crack, taste or juice to confess.
Hm... what about this I thought... and so I went looking for information.

Wikipedia helped me out of the fire, because what I had seen and eaten are not forest eggs!
I saw crap chisks!
The Mock Strawberry, or Ornamental Strawberry (Potentilla indica) belongs to the rose family, and is used in gardens as a ground cover.

You'll find them, just like the woodwood chisels, in the wild.
The species is an exotic, invasive, which means they're metastasize.
How to distinguish it from the forest strawberry? The Mock Strawberry has YELLOW flowers, the forest strawberry white.
By the way: no disaster if you eat them: both are edible, only one is tastier than the other.
