Forest berries will be found in the forest at the end of May, June and July. The tiny red fruits that are big on the fingernail are very tasty. Forest berries are not only a delicious forest fruit, they also have some healing properties. While walking, we will find forest strawberries along forest paths, in forest cuttings, along the forest edge, along shrubs on the edge of the meadow. They grow all the way up to 2,200 m high, which means we will find them in the mountains as well. They bloom from April to June, and the flowers are soon followed by delicious tiny fruits. Forest berries are propagated by seeds that are generated on fruits and dwarfs. Forest strawberry is not only a good treat for children and adults alike. It is also a medicinal plant. The fruits of the berries cause the uric acid to be purified from the body. From the leaves and roots we can make tea that helps against diarrhea, inflammation of the oral cavity and mucous membranes, cleanses the kidneys and bladder, and helps with inflammation of the liver and jaundice. There are not many berries in Slovenia, so we will not change from them in the forest. However, they should be kept in mind. If found, we will be able to enjoy a sweet treat.

I buy my strawberries from the store and I’m pretty sure they are not wild strawberries. I don’t really know. But I figure if they were “wild” they would add that word to the label and charge you extra. LOL.
Thanks for viewing and a friendly comment, my friend…..i’m sure it would have written and would have been more expensive … forest berries are also much smaller
Like forest strawberries very much, often eat them in my childhood. “Strawberry Fields Forever”!!!
Thank you for your visit and kind comment, my dear friend
I also prefer wild ones, their smell is so strong
Thanks for watching and kind comment, dear friend…they only taste very sour this year … there was not enough sun when they ripened
I love wild strawberries, they are very fragrant.
Thanks for viewing and a friendly comment, dear Ellie
The problem is that they make my lips and throat swell. Bummer. And by the way, thanks for being a part of Virily.
Thanks for watching and kind comment, dear friend….thank you for the kind comment .. glad to meet you on Virily
We have wild strawberries but they are not as sweet….
Thanks for looking and friendly comment, dear Pamela….they are not too sweet again this year … they were missing the sun as they matured
The world is full of wonders that oftentimes we don’t even know exist. In this part of the world, I haven’t seen such berry but I am sure I would love to have a taste of it. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching and kind comment, dear Sharon
Haven’t tried wild strawberries but I suppose they are no different from the ones I grow.
Thanks for looking and friendly comment, my friend….What makes a special difference is not only that the forests are a little sweeter and more acidic
Forest strawberries have a wonderful aroma. There is no comparison to the taste of strawberries and home grown ones. Always wins the wild.
Thanks for watching and kind comment, dear Elenka…the only thing that bothers me is because they are not so sweet … they are a little more acidic this year
what’s the difference between a wild strawberry and the kind you buy in the store?
Thanks for watching and kind comment, my friend…simply put it is a little more sour and less sweet …
that sounds better to me
But for my taste, I don’t … I really like sweet things
I prefer sour to sweet
I’m just the opposite, dear friend
When I lived in Latvia there were wild strawberries in the forests and they tasted even better and sweeter than the ones we grew in the garden.
Thanks for viewing and a friendly comment, dear Sandra….but this year they are very acidic …. in May when there was no bloom there was no sun
Forest strawberries taste much better than strawberries from the garden
Thanks for looking and friendly comment, dear Vidocka….it’s a matter of taste … they are not sweet enough for me
Then you love sweet things
I have a bitter life and I love sweet things, dear Vidocka
hahahaha, but I do not believe this
Believe me, dear Vidocka….. maybe you can sweeten it for me hahaha
Looks like we all love strawberries. I used to pick them in my childhood.

Wild berries are always better than cultivated berries. I love the wild ones.
Thanks for viewing and a friendly comment, dear friend….depending on the taste …. they are too sweet to me otherwise they taste better

Most fruits that are cultivated were once forest fruits

Very informative post about forest strawberry but i didn’t taste this.
Thanks for watching and kind comment, dear friend
what a beautiful capture. I love the strawberry picture so much!
I used to, when I was in the forest more, look for wild Blackberries. Strawberries need more sunlight and I used to walk int he deep woods. But the edges of the woods out always have blackberries.
Thanks for viewing and kind comment….in Slovenia, most of them are almost on the meadows
