Rubus Chamaemorus, Linn. Cloudberry. Bakeapple- Berry. Yellow Berry. Molka. Salmonberrhy im-properly (see No. 32). Fig. 3487. Creeping: branches herbaceous, covering the ground, pubescent or almost glabrous: lvs. round-cordate or reniform, shallowly 3-5- lobed, finely dentate: fls. large and white, in solitary terminal peduncles: fr. large, globular, red or yellowish, composed of few soft drupelets, edible. Entirely across the continent in high northern and arctic regions, and reaching as far south, in the E., as the high land of Maine and N. H. and eastern end of L. I.; also in Eu. and Asia.—The cloudberry is an inhabitant of peatbogs and cool places. It is much prized for its fr., which is gathered from the wild in large quantities. It is sometimes planted farther south as a rock-garden plant. R. arcticus, Linn., a pink-fld. species with trifoliolate lvs., occurs in nearly the same range, and produces small edible berries; this species belongs to Section II.
