What's new

Pakistani wild Strawberry only please -help need from locals or those living in Northern areas

@WAJsal @IrbiS @farhan_9909 @krash Hey if any of you guys find some berries - strawberries in the wild please collect the fruit (if possible) smash it on a piece of tissue and leave it to dry...I am going to Pakistan whole of December and am asking people to do this favour for me coz if I pick these up I can take them into Europe without need of paper work....

However, it would be useful if on the tissue you write where it is from (if you have coordinates that is better) and have some pix of leaves, flower and plant to go with the smashed fruit....If you cant find fruit than pix of leaves and flowers...Closeup of both is necessary to see if these are something new....

Just a point to note is the leaves HAVE to be trilobbed - meaning it is essentially 1 leaf divided into 3 parts and has jagged outline!

Hey sorry for being late.

There's nothing called strawberry grown in our region as you are fimiliar with Multan. Mulberries are easily found and have seen more than one types. Mangoes are in walking distance but this is of no help I guess

Well I am not looking for cultivated strawberry ....not the ones bought from America for commercial use but those that grow near mountain grooves and valleys and also those that are found on forest floor ......Which part of Pakistan are you from? Need to start crossing out places :(

Multan and you mentioned visiting here so you know there's absolutely no strawberry here.
