https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potentilla_indica It has foliage and an aggregate accessory fruit similar to that of a true strawberry. It has yellow flowers, unlike the white or slightly pink flowers of true strawberries. It is native to eastern and southern Asia, but has been introduced to many other areas as a medicinal and an ornamental plant, subsequently naturalizing in many regions worldwide.
The leaves are trifoliate, roughly veined beneath, dark green, and often persisting through the winter, arising from short crowns. The plant spreads along creeping stolons, rooting and producing crowns at each node. The yellow flowers are produced in mid spring, then sporadically throughout the growing season. The aggregate accessory fruits are white or red, and entirely covered with red achenes, simple ovaries, each containing a single seed.
The fresh berries are edible but considered less palatable than proper strawberries.
Indinė žemuogenė natūraliai paplitusi Pietryčių Azijoje, ten auga kalnų šlaituose, miškuose. Dauginasi dukterinėmis skrotelėmis ir sėklomis, kurias platina paukščiai. Lapai ir uogos panašūs į tikros žemuogės. Žiedai geltonais vainiklapiais, panašūs į sidabražolės. Uogos apvalios, apie 1 cm skersmens, laikosi stačios ant kotelių. Žydėti pradeda gegužę, pirmos uogos birželį, paskutinės rugsėjį. Auginamos dėl dekoratyvumo. Uogos valgomos, bet blankaus skonio. Po medžiais ir krūmais žemuogenės sudaro apie 10 cm aukščio visžalius kilimėlius.
