Strawberry Leaf (Fragaria vesca)

Best known for its sweet, red berries, the wild strawberry plant is equally valued for its aromatic, astringent leaves. Used in traditional herbal practices, strawberry leaves are both healthful and flavorful, making them a popular ingredient in herbal infusions and teas. This herbaceous perennial belongs to the rose family (Rosaceae) and thrives across the Northern Hemisphere, commonly found in meadows, hillsides, and along forest trails.

• Produces three-lobed, serrated leaves beneath its delicate white flowers and red fruits.
• The leaves contain natural tannins, which contribute to their mildly astringent properties.
• Can be steeped as tea, blended into herbal infusions, or used in topical applications.
