A tiny flower, easily overlooked. It looks like a strawberry but is actually a Potentilla not a Fragaria.
Instead of a red, juicy fruit it produces a little brown nut.
You can quickly tell it is a barren strawberry and not a true strawberry by looking at the three-lobed leaves.
The middle tooth at the end of each toothed leaflet is shorter than the teeth to either side of it. This is not the case with a true strawberry.
