Default Fragaria virginiana /American wild strawberry

Hi all,
thanks to a tip on this forum, I found American wild strawberry seeds on-line, received them and have been able to plant some in the ground this spring/summer.
STill tiny, but it is already possible to observe the growing habit and compare it with the European alpine strawberries.
The leaves in the Virginian strawberry are a bit more serrated in shape, very pretty, recognizable as strawberry, but distinct from the European counterpart.
It will be very interesting to watch the flowering habit and taste the fruit - if those pesky birds allow me to have my share before they come to steal theirs..!
