Fragaria nubicola
Fragaria nubicola is a perennial wild strawberry from the Himalayan region, grown mainly as a wild or ornamental plant rather than for commercial fruit. It is grown much like other woodland strawberries, needing a cool climate and moist, well-drained soil.
Fragaria nubicola is a species of wild strawberry native to the Himalayas. It is of no commercial value.
Leaf extracts from Fragaria Nubicola have shown promising but limited results in reducing inflammation in joints, which could prove to be a possible treatment for arthritis. Studies have only been done on animals and have yet to be tested on humans, but historical anecdotes and animal testing are promising.
