Waldsteinia fragarioides (Michx.) Tratt.

Petioles elongate; lfls broadly cuneate-obovate, serrate and usually shallowly lobed, the lateral ones asymmetrical; peduncles about equaling the lvs, with few to several fls. Moist or dry woods; Me. and w. Que. to Minn., s. to Pa., Ind., and in the mts. to Ga. and Ala. Apr., May. The widespread var. fragarioides, with obovate to broadly elliptic pet mostly 5–10 mm long and more than half as wide, obtuse or rounded and evidently exceeding the sep, tends to give way in the s. Appalachian mts. (at least southward) to var. parviflora (Small) Fernald, with lance-elliptic or narrowly elliptic pet mostly 2.5–5 mm long, less than half as wide, often acute, and shorter than to barely exceeding the sep. (W. parviflora; W. doniana, a garden plant probably of var. fragarioides, but the name often used for var. parviflora)
