The message
from "Mike Lyle" contains these words:
Latin name available?
I had these all over the place in Wales: yes, the fruit is almost
tasteless, though sweetish, so children like eating it. I think what
I had was the "Indian strawberry", variously named _Duchesnea indica_
or _Fragaria indica_ (I think the first name is the kosher one). It
doesn't seem to be in my Collins Field Guide, though it's a common
enough introduction as far as I know.
Perhaps its runners aren't very fast and it hasn't reached East Angular yet?
