| The '''Mock Strawberry''', ''Potentilla indica'' (formerly ''Duchesnea indica''), is also known as the '''Indian Strawberry''' and the '''Snake Berry'''. Although the foliage and fruit are quite similar, is not a true [[strawberry]] and can readily be distinguished by its yellow [[flower]]s, as opposed to the flowers of true strawberries which are white or slightly pink. It is native to eastern and southern [[Asia]], but has been introduced to many other areas as an [[ornamental plant]], though it is considered a [[noxious weed]] in some regions. | | The '''Mock Strawberry''', ''Potentilla indica'' (formerly ''Duchesnea indica''), is also known as the '''Indian Strawberry''' and the '''Snake Berry'''.
