Fragaria Vesca
The wild strawberry is to be found on hillsides, in woodlands, and on exposed land throughout most of the British Isles. It's not uncommon to find either wild specimens or garden escapees, and as you can see from this picture it can fruit quite profusely. Many texts reccomend that the wild strawberry ripens in August, but depending on how much sunlight the plants get they can be ripe from June onwards.
Use it like you would a domestic strawberry, bearing in mind that the flavour is more intense and sweeter in the true wild strawberry.
