Wild strawberries?
Spotted them while mowing my lawn this afternoon.
I’m inclined to agree with @Catoblepas and say mock strawberry. If you recall seeing or see yellow flowers on the plants that’s another indication that it’s P. indica
Also that the strawberry is turned up instead of hanging down is another indication of a mock strawberry.
But in any case they should be edible (please correct me if I’m wrong!) :)
Definitely edible, certainly not selectively bred for flavor.
It’s always good to confirm a species ID with multiple indicators!
I don’t recall any flowers, but the fruity part looks just like in the mock strawberry wiki article.
Agreed, and the fruit is identical to our mock strawberries so I feel comfortable with the ID, but it’s always good to confirm a species ID with multiple indicators
