Duchesnea (A. N. Duchesne, monographer of Fragaria in 1766). Rosaceae. Fragaria-like perennial trailing herbs, differing in the calyx being 5-parted and the lobes alternating with larger leafy 3-5-toothed bracts, the petals yellow, and the receptacle dry and spongy rather than becoming fleshy or pulpy as in the strawberry: lvs. ternate, with short-stalked lfts.: fls. solitary, on the runners; stamens 20-25, short.—Two species in S. Asia, one of which has run wild in this country, and is useful as a basket-plant and as a low ground-cover. CH
